Felony convictions in California typically appear on a background check immediately after the court enters the conviction into their database. This process can take a few days to a few weeks, depending on the efficiency of the court system.
This really depends...On the country in which you do the background check, on the depth required in the search (some checks only look for convictions, some look into more detail, such as an arrest record, charge, or acquittal), and also on the type of organization conducting the criminal background check. I know that in Canada, there are private services available that provide some results in as little as one hour, but more commonly it takes 24-72 hours, although this is no guarantee. However, if the RCMP is conducting a criminal background check (it will be a very in depth check) it can take anywhere from 120 days (for people who have no criminal record) to over 120 days (for people who do have a criminal record). Basically, it can take as little as 1 hour for surface information, or as long as 3+months for an extremely detailed check. As I said, I'm sure the waiting times vary for other countries, but this should provide a guideline. Hope it helps!
Yes, sort of, but not really. Confused? I could give you the long answer, but the short answer is simple. You cannot be Legally discriminated against for refusing to take a background check. If you won't pass the check, and you already know whether you will or not, then adamantly refuse to give anyone permission for any background check whatsoever. They may check anyway, but will not be legally allowed to use what they find. Know in advance, that failing the background check will result in automatic dismissal from your post. You will be lied to, and told that there is no harm in failing, but that is to trick you into giving permission. Remember that often the chack has already been done, they just need your permission to use what they found. Don't give it. You also cannot be prosecuted for Lying. It does not matter what is written on any form. Perjury can only prosecuted if it is done under oath in open court. Obviously if you are caught lying, you will be discriminated against, but the entire purpose of a background check is so that others can Legally discriminate against you. Fight back by lying, stonewalling and obfuscating in any way possible.
Depending on the state, it never will. Many states will give you the ability several years after the crime to appeal before the state to have it expunged from your record. You'd have to check your state laws. However, a felony is a serious crime with serious consequences that go far beyond when you're released from prison.
yes- they say that they don't but they show up on any background check-if you did something as a juvenile, then wound up in court as an adult- the judge does have your records, and although legally cannot take them into account when sentencing, they still do-
Longer than a level 1 background check, shorter then a level 3 background check.
Depends on what kind of background check they conduct. Normally its 24-72 hours.
This depends how long it takes to get your background check back.
It can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks to do a proper background check, depending on the type of background check it is, and the various institutions that may have to be contacted. Any ad that suggests "instant" background checks is either a scam or a background check that is incredibly simple and provides you with little to no information.

A background check in Florida typically takes between 24 hours to a few days to complete. However, the exact time frame can vary depending on the type of background check being conducted, the complexity of the information being searched, and the agency or organization responsible for conducting the check.
Since its a federal it may take a few days. Today they use E-Verify to ensure that you are a United States citizen and then they run a formal background check to ensure your not a criminal and are in good standing.
It depends on where you are. In Tennessee (the state where I live) it can take up to three months.
It takes them a week to two weeks for a background check and they call you as soon as they have seen it usually another day or two so id say around 8 to 9 days
With today's interactive background check technology, results can come back instantly even while you are sitting in front of the interviewer. Lying about not being a convicted felon in an employment application can lead to immediate employment termination without any recourse.
It depends on what kind of check is being done. A simple background check (when you are being screened for insurance or credit purposes) can take only a few days. If this is something more intense, it could take longer. A company (backgroundpi) that needs to run checks with law enforcement could take several weeks. The more your information is run through law enforcement databases, the faster stuff comes back.
