County and State

Through our automated platform and direct-court access, state and local criminal background checks can be searched quickly and comprehensively from an applicant’s relevant address history - returning 4 out of 5 results in the same day. Using the SSN Trace, addresses are automatically identified and can be seamlessly included in each search.

Federal

A search across all federal district courts. Crimes tried in U.S. district courts generally involve violations of the constitution or federal law and may not appear on county court records. These crimes may include tax evasion, embezzlement, bank robbery, kidnapping, mail fraud, and other federal statute violations.

International

A search for criminal activity outside of the United States. Asurint offers searches in more than 250 foreign countries, territories, and dependencies – where legally available to offer – and results include convictions based on the country’s laws and regulations.

Additional Names

An additional name, sometimes called ‘alias,’ is a name that an individual has gone by in the past (i.e. shortened first name, maiden name, etc.). Searching additional names is important for background check comprehensiveness and potentially increases the number of records found. Asurint automatically identifies additional names using the SSN trace.

Additional name search options are available and can be added to state and local, federal, and international searches.

Sex Offender Registry (SOR)

Sex Offender Registry searches from all 50 states and many U.S. territories and tribes are included within a state and local search. A standalone search, or a specific state, can also be requested.
