Expunged Record Reported On Background Check

Reporting Expunged Record On Background Check

Having an expunged record reported on a background check is a serious and common error in the screening process. This often happens when a court removes or seals a criminal record, but the background check agency fails to update its database, allowing outdated information to appear on reports.

As a result, expunged or sealed cases may still be visible to employers or landlords, unfairly impacting job opportunities and housing applications.

Background check agencies are legally required to provide the most up-to-date court information. If they fail to remove expunged records from your report, you have the right to sue for compensation.
