Did you know
Some of the most serious crimes will not appear on a county or statewide criminal search because they were charged at a federal court. Federal crimes are those that involve a violation of the US Constitution or a law passed by US Congress, as well as those crimes that cross state lines where state jurisdiction is unclear. Examples of federal crimes include carjacking, aircraft hijacking, mail fraud, damaging or destroying public mailboxes, kidnapping, child pornography, obscenity, credit card fraud, tax evasion, counterfeiting, identity theft, bank robbery, federal hate crimes, racketeering, computer crimes, violations of the Espionage Act, a violation of the US Patriot Act, illegal wiretapping, art theft from a museum, and immigration offenses.
Recommended for
Federal crimes tend to be very serious in nature; therefore, we strongly recommend the Federal Criminal search for important, high-ranking positions. In addition, the Federal Criminal search will reveal serious "white-collar" crimes, making it a vital search for financial, executive, and managerial positions.

Results Guidelines
Our researchers utilize several identifiers to ensure the maximum possible accuracy when reviewing the information housed in the applicable federal court. A typical match is made using the first and last name, along with the applicant’s date of birth. Generally, courts on this level have begun withholding Social Security Numbers (SSN) from the public indexes due to concerns over identity theft. If the SSN is available with the record, it will also be used to ensure a match. Consultation with a qualified legal counsel is recommended for all employment law matters.

FAQ
Q: What type of information is required to order a Federal Criminal search?
A: One very important item to provide for all criminal searches, but especially Federal Criminal searches, is the applicant’s middle name. Due to the number of Federal criminal records available, having the applicant’s middle name makes it much easier to complete this search in a timely manner and to ensure that accurate results are returned.
Q: What types of records can be found in a Federal Criminal search?
A: Federal criminal records include any crime that was tried in federal court. This could include immigration violations, terrorism charges, interstate drug or weapons charges, or even charges such as receiving a DUI on a military base or fishing on Native American land without a permit.
