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.
As of 2010, there aren't any specific federal laws regarding how long an employer should retain an employee's background check information. Some background check providers, such as Info Cubic Employment Screening Services, explicitly states on its websites that they'll keep background checks on file forever.
