US criminal record checks
Overview. As an additional check, IdentityCheck can run US criminal record checks. They are available on request, enabled on your account rather than through a self-serve toggle, and an additional cost applies. Like every IdentityCheck feature, they support your firm's due diligence rather than replacing your judgement.
Do you do criminal checks?
US criminal record checks are available on request. They are not enabled by default and there is no self-serve toggle. If your firm has clients for whom a US criminal record check is relevant, contact StackGo or raise a support ticket and we can enable the capability on your account. An additional cost applies.
Once enabled, the check runs automatically after a client passes identity verification, and any results appear against that verification for your staff to review. As with every IdentityCheck feature, this supports your due diligence and record keeping; it does not make a compliance decision for you. If you think you need this, get in touch and we will talk through whether it fits your situation.
