How Do I Know If I Have a Criminal Record
Answer:
- If you have ever been convicted of a crime you most likely have a criminal record. You can find out for sure if you have anything on your criminal rap sheet by checking your criminal history with the FBI or conducting a free background check. To do this you must file the application, get your fingerprints and give them $18 and wait up to 12 weeks for processing of your background check.
- You can also use a private company that offer’s background checks almost instantly from your home. These websites scan millions of public records files and will give you information about your criminal background in minutes. The fee’s range anywhere from $1-$50 depending on what type of access to the database you want.
Further details:
If you have been convicted of a crime when you was a minor that will not be on your criminal record as an adult. Now if you was charged as an adult for a certain crime then you most likely have something on your rap sheet. If you are a felon or you have been convicted of crimes you will have a criminal record unless you had a record expunged.
Just because you have been arrested doesn’t mean you have a criminal record. You have to be convicted of the crime for it to appear on a background check and your rap sheet.
