How long does a California Background Check take?
Turnaround time for most background screening reports is one to three business days. A few California courts are slow to respond to criminal record requests. Also, some employers and schools can be hard to contact or are slow to respond. However, even slow reports are usually completed within a week.

What does a California Background Check cost?
California Employment Screening costs vary according to the number of searches requested. Price is a compromise between cost and a thorough employment screening report. A basic background check typically starts at $50. As additional information about the applicant is gathered, a more comprehensive background check may range from $200 to $500+. Every organization is unique with differing needs and budgets. We consult with our clients to determine the most thorough background screening report within the client’s budget. Our clients may set a price threshold for their background checks.
What information is included in a typical California Background Check?
The most common searches run in a California Background Check are County Criminal Record Checks. Social Security Number Scans, Employment Verifications, and Education Verifications are also very common.
