A national background check is simply the combination of 46 separate statewide criminal background checks.  As such, the national background check can retrieve criminal records from a long time back, sometimes decades old if one of the states it includes in its search has criminal history records that are stored from that far back and are available for instant online gateway retrieval.

The Federal Search only goes back 7 years except for a few Federal Courts that don’t even go back that far, however there are well over 300 Federal Courts so only 1% of them do not allow CriminalBackgroundRecords.com  to go back 7+ years.  Even though the Federal search is not instant, most Federal search requests take less than 1 business day to complete.
