Hi shane and welcome. As I understand it, jgp is correct in saying it's done via mail. And yes, the checks are made at all 4 levels. As far as DPS contacting your employers, I wouldn't think so, but that's an assumption on my part. And yes most definitely someone at the county clerks office would know about it because DPS will make the inquiry to the county clerk. Who that someone is depends entirely on how large the county is in population, and how many departments it has. I'm in Tarrant county and it took me 3 phone calls to the "county clerk" just to see which one of the 19 or 20 county clerk's different division would handle dispositions(what Tarrant county calls Final Sentence and Judgment).shane333 wrote:Hello,
When I send in my application, what background checks are made? Federal, State, County, City? Are these made electronically or does someone from the DPS actually talk to someone from the different entities about the checks? Also, are the employers who are listed contacted about the application? Would someone in the county clerks office find out about my application and background check?
Thanks for any info!
Hope that helps a little bit. If not, keep on asking away. That's what we are here for....among other things. This is a learning process for all of us.
