Central Billing for Multiple Background Check Accounts

May 15, 2009 By Criminal Background Check 2 Comments

Now Offering Central Billing for Multiple Accounts
Along with Administrative Usage Monitoring, Reporting & Control
For Large Companies and Organizations in the USA

Due to large demand of central control for criminal background checks, employment screening and tenant screening in the USA, CriminalBackgroundRecords.com has created a new environment now available for companies and organizations operating in multiple offices, areas and states.  These clients wanted multiple accounts/users, and central administrative usage monitoring and reporting.  This is now possible with CriminalBackgroundRecords.com and is becoming a much more popular background screening solution with large processing customers throughout America.

This is how it works and how we customize this solution for well qualified customers:

  1. Define how many individual user accounts need to be setup along with which background checks each of them are allowed to perform.
  2. Each user account needs to fill out our Monthly Billing application form as each User ID needs to be registered (we walk each individual user through this process if need be).
  3. We setup a Master Account that can monitor and view the transactional usage & other activity on all the individual user accounts from one view.
    • We will create the Master Account for you or whoever is going to be overseeing/monitoring your transactions including all your criminal background check orders.
  4. We will send you a monthly invoice each month that includes all of the individual user accounts on it.  Very simple, just one bill each month for all activity.
  5. If your goal is to start running background checks in such a system ASAP, we will have a business development representative work with you on setting up all your accounts and other necessary prep work.  Remember significant volume discounts are available so please ask about our pricing.
  6. We can have all your user accounts, master account, billing etc., all setup within a few days!

This opportunity is extremely valuable to large corporations, organizations and government agencies that have or want individual user accounts across multiple offices or states.  This new platform gives your organization the flexibility of multiple user accounts and the security and oversight that comes with central control (through usage monitoring and all encompassing reports).  CriminalBackgroundRecords.com delivers this new platform complete with central invoicing, administrative access and only one bill to pay each month which includes a breakdown of all individual user account activity.

For more information regarding this new platform or to sign up for it, please contact our Business Development Team at:  bd@infoeinc.com or bd@CriminalBackgroundRecords.com

E-Verify Citizenship and Immigration Status – Criminal Background Checks & Social Security Verifications

July 27, 2008 By Criminal Background Check 7 Comments

Proving Citizenship and Immigration Status
Criminal Background Checks & Social Security Verifications
And a peek into the US Citizenship & Immigration Services

On March 1, 2003, service and benefit functions of the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) transitioned into the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as US Citizenship & Immigration Services (USCIS).  The USCIS which can be found online at:  http://www.uscis.gov/ outlines their E-Verify system which is free to employers and lets them know the employment eligibility of new applicants/employees. However, it appears that they do not allow you to use the system until after you hire the applicant.  If you have questions about E-Verify then you can reach them in Washington DC at: 202-272-8720 (E-Verify is part of the SAVE Program).  The E-Verify search tells you if someone is eligible to work in the US by giving their current immigration status.  This check should be used by employers as a tool to sift out ineligible employment prospects.  CriminalBackgroundRecords.com and its parent company Information Enterprises, Inc. like this program because it is an extra tool for employers that helps to eliminate social security number mismatches, improves the accuracy of wage and tax reporting, protects jobs for authorized U.S. workers, and helps U.S. employers maintain a legal workforce.

Currently CriminalBackgroundRecords.com offers an SSN Validation & Address History Trace product that is separate from our criminal background checks.  Although this search will not tell you if an individual is legally authorized to work in the USA or what their current status is with the Immigration Office (USCIS), it is still very valuable.  This check can be performed very quickly and will verify when the social security number was issued, where it was issued, to whom it was issued to and will show names and addresses associated with it.  This SSN Search is now commonly used in conjunction with either a statewide criminal background check or national background check.  Our criminal background checks do sometimes return social security numbers within the records themselves for validation.  However, this does not happen every time as criminal court records have historically been archived by date of birth and not social security numbers.  Still, neither our national criminal background check nor SSN Search will tell you if someone is a US Citizen or what their current Immigration Status is.  Having a social security number does not prove that you are a US Citizen, nor does it act as a singular qualifier proving your eligibility to work in the USA.  You would have to contact the USCIS (formerly the INS) directly for confirmation.  The only other option available is to physically get a copy of the individual’s birth certificate or certificate of naturalization showing that either by birth or legal process this person has become a US Citizen.

CriminalBackgroundRecords.com offers the following FREE searches with all its criminal background checks:
We include a Most Wanted Background Check with each Criminal Search.  This pulls information from the following sources:  Top Ten FBI Most Wanted, FBI Most Wanted Fugitives, US Marshals Most Wanted, US Secret Service Most Wanted, Americas Most Wanted and other state departments of public safety.

We also include a Full Terrorist Background Check with each criminal background search.  We check the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons list maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury with every criminal search.

In addition to the two free searches above, we also include a National Sex Offender Registry Check (including all 50 states) with each background search.  Each state in the nation has a sex offender registry which maintains a database of sex offenders.  The information stored varies from state to state, but in general most state sex offender background reports include high-risk offenders and persons who have been convicted of, found guilty of or plead guilty to committing or attempting to commit sexual offenses.  Many of these records include mug shots & photos when a match is found.

Here is a more detailed breakdown of what is covered in our Sex Offender Search

High-Risk Sex Offenders – Individuals with real recidivism concerns from all 50 US States.

Sexual Predators – Sexually violent offenders & persons obtaining or seeking non-consensual sexual contact with another person and/or has committed sex crimes, such as rape or child sexual abuse.

Department of Corrections – Convicted sex offenders who were under the supervision of the DOC.

Crimes Against Children – Kidnapping, felonious restraint and/or child abuse, including people convicted of, found guilty of or plead guilty to committing or attempting to commit sexual offenses and other crimes against children.

With this new Blog, end users of criminal reports, industry people, and information technology persons can all converge on one front to address their questions, concerns and ideas.  The word “blog” is just a shortened word for “web log” that has gained in popularity and now is considered a word of its own with its own meaning.  Blogs have become increasingly popular on the Internet and have allowed people who are far away from each other to come together on a website they share a mutual interest in.  Sharing ideas, commentary, news and concerns regarding the background retrieval industry (with people all across the USA) is now possible and very easy to do.  So please visit us at blog.CriminalBackgroundRecords.com and start voicing your opinion today.

Blogs are found on many websites and are usually maintained by an individual, company or organization that adds regular ongoing entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other information for others to read.  CriminalBackgroundRecords.com’s new interactive Blog now allows browsers and users to ask questions like, “What happens when someone goes to court for a proposed crime?” or “what is the difference between a felony, misdemeanor or infraction offense?”  With the new fully functioning blog, people can educate each other as to what a felony, misdemeanor, and infraction are, as well as how certain sentencing works in the USA.

This online blog is for everyone from criminal history searching experts to someone wanting clarification on their own criminal record.  Now there is a platform and place to voice criminal background industry questions.  A place to find out what exactly makes up a criminal conviction record to why a criminal record can be different than an arrest record.  It is a free place to learn, question, and confront common truths and misconceptions pertaining to the criminal background retrieval industry.  Get educated on police policies, US court system operations, US department of corrections and US law.

The USA is comprised of 50 individual states representing 3,143 counties.  At CriminalBackgroundRecords.com you can conduct a county criminal background check in any county in the USA.  You can also conduct a criminal background check at the state level in 48 states.  National criminal checks are also available and include additional free searches like a national sex offender check and terrorist list search.

Below is a breakdown of the major criminal background checks available in the USA
(all of which can be searched at CriminalBackgroundRecords.com)

County Criminal Background Check:
A county search is the most current, accurate and complete search available in the US today.  However, you need to know the state and county you want to perform this search in; otherwise it will not be effective.  This search entails having a professional court researcher manually pull the complete record in question for you.  It typically takes a day or more for your search results to come in.  County criminal background checks go back seven years and include felony and misdemeanor conviction records.

Statewide Criminal Background Check:
The statewide criminal background search is the most popular criminal background check used today in the USA.  Statewide criminal checks are available in forty-eight states.  This search includes all commonly looked for information including department of corrections info, bodily characteristics, sentence info, case number and court records (including felony convictions and misdemeanor offenses).

CriminalBackgroundRecords.com online statewide criminal searches include a free national sex offender report, free terrorist database criminal background check, and a free US most wanted criminal database search.

Multi-State Criminal Background Check:
Multi-State criminal searches can cover two or more full states and usually include additional free searches like a sex offender registry check, the terrorist database search (which is maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), and lists such international terrorists sometimes called Specially Designated Nationals or SDNs), and a free criminal check of the US Most Wanted list including FBI, Secret Service and Americas most wanted criminals.

National Criminal Background Check:
CriminalBackgroundRecords.com has an instant national criminal background check which consists of 46 US states.  This search includes a national sex offender check and other free criminal background checks made available to the US market as public records.

We now accept PayPal as means of payment for our criminal reports!

September 15, 2006 By Criminal Background Check 1 Comment

PayPal vs. Credit Cards

More and more online buyers are using PayPal as an alternate form of payment for their online orders.  Why?  We have gathered that with rampant use of credit card fraud, online buyers wanted a safer and easier way to order online without exposing their credit card numbers, and of course to save some money by avoiding credit card fees.

What is PayPal?

PayPal lets you easily send money through the internet without compromising the privacy of your credit card information.  CriminalBackgroundRecords.com added PayPal as a new form of payment for its criminal background reports and other background searches it offers because of the demand of millions of online buyers choosing PayPal instead of the standard credit cards when ordering online.  We understand why Internet purchasers are choosing PayPal over alternate forms of payment, mostly credit cards, and that is because PayPal is safer, easier and currently has no additional fees applied to the use of it.  Why is PayPal safer than using standard credit cards?  PayPal is safer because you can still pay with your credit card, bank account or PayPal balance without exposing your account numbers to the merchant (website that you are buying something from).  Easier because through the checkout process you do not need to enter your financial information over the merchant’s website as PayPal already has your financial information on their end and therefore does not require you to re-enter it.  This simple method actually reduces the overall ordering time as you only need to enter your PayPal email address and password, two inputs of usually memorized information.

Paying online with PayPal at CriminalBackgroundRecords.com gives you all the following benefits:

  • Speedy ordering all through the criminal search checkout process.
  • Safe online ordering of criminal background checks without revealing or exposing your credit card details.
  • You get to choose if you want PayPal to debit your credit card, bank account or to pull money directly from your current PayPal balance.

CriminalBackgroundRecords.com delivers formatted, substantive background reports from county level criminal background checks to geographically comprehensive national criminal searches throughout the USA.  We offer criminal background checks in every state in the nation, and now with PayPal as a new payment ordering mechanism on the site; we are making it possible for our current members who prefer to use PayPal as a form of payment to do so.  We have also added PayPal as a form of payment for our criminal history reports in order to allow new users (who may only exclusively use PayPal when ordering online) to have the opportunity to purchase the best criminal background record reports available on the Internet today, with the payment method they trust the most.

CriminalBackgroundRecords.com hopes this article helps its browsers and users become more educated in the varying online payment methods available today, and more informed as to what exactly to expect when using PayPal to purchase criminal background reports from our site.
