Background checks

20 years and you would be safe you never know until you try, what is the worst they can say? Nothing, you just won't get a call back.

 

My wife and I both had our Haz-Mat background checks done in June. We were told it would take 3-6 weeks for the replies. Ours were back in a week to 10 days! The DOT was very surprised.

 

Does anyone know if there is a way for us to check our own backgrounds? I know US Search can do a background check for you for about $60 but will this show what they are looking at? or do they get into files that we cant see? reason I ask is that recently I tried applying for an airline position and altho I wasnt told I had something pop up in my background, but everyone elses came back and mine just didnt get returned, which to me is the same thing as just telling me that I cant work there. they said they would call me when I was clear but I just dont see what would be holding me back. I've never been in trouble, never arrested, never had dwi's or anything. I've had 3 tickets ever, one for speeding and 2 seatbelts. Just wish I could see what they see.
