What is an FBI Criminal Report?

It comes as a surprise to a lot of people to learn that the FBI may be maintaining a criminal report on them. Some people even find the idea rather scary. But the fact is it is very common. The FBI gathers information from every police department and court in the country on arrests and convictions and compiles the information into a large national database. So, if you have ever been arrested, charged with a crime or convicted of one, the FBI knows about it and they have created a report that documents it all.

Not everyone has an FBI Criminal Report of course, as they are generally a summary of arrests and convictions - in all 50 states - related to a specific individual. But even if you have never been arrested, there are some specific situations that require you to prove that fact and obtaining an official transcript - officially called a National Identity History Summary check but more often referred to as an FBI Criminal Report - from the FBI is the most efficient and acceptable way to do that.

So, who might need to access their FBI Criminal Report and/or obtain a National Identity History Summary proving that they do not have a criminal history? Here are some of the most common examples.
