Tucson, AZ - Background Check

Employers are restricted from asking about past criminal convictions on city applications. Once the employer has selected a candidate for the position, a background check may be run if it's required by the position.
The state of Arizona follows the laws of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), which only allows background checks to go back seven years.
Statistics About Crime in the City of Tucson, AZ
Experts Say...
Arizona lawyer, John Phebus, explains background checks in Arizona. "In Arizona, background checks can serve to confirm Social Security numbers, confirm home addresses, check driving records, obtain a credit score report, and provide an overview of criminal history," he says. "An Arizona background check can surface criminal record information from different states, not just in Arizona. Crimes you committed in a different state, therefore, could appear on your Arizona background check."
Phebus explains that the information requested depends on the employer's or investigator's request. Background checks for caretaker roles, for example, might include criminal history and social security. However, landlords might request credit and employment checks on their tenants.
