How long does a background check take?

The duration of a background check conducted by Checkr varies depending on various factors. Generally, the process takes around 2-5 business days. However, this timeline is only an estimate, as the actual time may vary due to multiple factors, such as the complexity of the background check, the scope of the search, and the responsiveness of the information sources. Delays can also occur if additional verification or information is required. It is important to note that some checks, like international verifications or checks in certain industries, may take longer due to different regulations or processing times. Checkr aims to deliver results as quickly as possible while maintaining accuracy and compliance with the applicable laws and regulations.
