Does anybody know if a dwi would appear on a criminal backround check from almost 3 years ago. I would appreciate any input you may have.

Thanks in advance

It depends on how the DUI is listed in the state it happened, if it is a criminal charge, and you were arrested, fingerprinted and photoed, it will show up on the NCIC report, in some states, it is treated as a driving record report, not a criminal record. So it would only show up if a DMV record was also ran along with a criminal background.
As a police officer we always ran both, but some back ground checks don't also run a DMV all the time.

Hey friar chuck,

Do most companies use ncic to do back groung checks and if they don't use it are ones they use as accurate. Once again thanks in advance

Today with the internet, many are using paid companies online, in the older days, they would go down to the local police station and get a report ran. In TN you can get the state to run the report. Since many private companies reports can miss things,
So it is a company by company thing, But only the real NCIC report is ever 100 percent correct from a legal standpoint
