What are the different Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Check types?

There are two main check types:

Paid employment check

A paid employment check is required if you are obtaining a check for paid employment purposes.

Volunteer check

A volunteer check type is required if you are obtaining a check for volunteer purposes. This type of check cannot be used for paid employment purposes. 

If you accidentally apply for the wrong type of check, please contact us to let us know.
