State Criminal Background Checks | Verified Credentials

A statewide criminal search gives your organization an overview of a candidate’s criminal history in a specific state. It can help you identify crimes you might overlook by concentrating on a few county criminal searches.

Some states have up-to-date county-level records available, and most maintain a database periodically updated by county sources. The types of records maintained and the details available vary by state.

You can supplement state searches with our county-level searches so you can identify records near places of residence, employers, and academic institutions.

State searches available:

PA, IL, VA, TN, IA, AK, AL, GA, VT, MN, OR, ID, NC, NE, HI, ND, RI, KY, CO, ME, NY, KS, MS, WI, WA, MT, IN, NH, SD, FL, NM, UT, SC, MO, MD, OH, AR, CT, MI, OK, TX, NJ, and DE

Statewide searches can provide records potentially missed with other searches.
