The basic rule for employment background checks. The basic rule for criminal background checks in Texas is an employer using a credit reporting agency may go back seven years in a criminal background check. However, there are several exceptions to this rule. Under Texas law, most applicants cut off at a seven year check unless the salary exceeds $75,000.
1 Ideally, the background check can help reveal whether or not a person told the truth (i) to questions on an employment application, including whether they have a criminal record, and (ii) in what they stated on their resume. Our experience is that on average, the typical packages ordered range from about $30 for basic criminal searches to $100 for packages that include more extensive criminal searches (e.g., Federal Criminal and Terrorist Watch List) as well as employment verifications and motor vehicle records searches.
