    Default Will Criminal Records Show Up In A Different State

    If a felony was done in the state of Oregon...time served and all that and it has been 6 years almost 7 years since the crime was committed and you move into a new state and they do a background check does it come up on your background check? The reason I ask is I volunteered for the City I live in and told them about my conviction because the application asked me if I had ever had the felony thing...so I was honest and then I got a call from the programs manager and she said everything came back ok and that no news was good news from doing the check on me. What does that mean? Has enough time gone by that I don't have to state that one and only conviction or because I moved to another state will it not show up in the new state database?

    Criminal records do not go away after time! Depending on how far the background check goes they will find it

    Thats right...they don't go away with time...but you didn't answer his other question; ie: do crimes from state A show up in a background check for state B?

    I post this because I have a similar situation....I have a misdeamer in state A. I want to know if a background check performed in state B will reveal the misdeamer. I would think no, because they are misdeamer's and significant only to the state where they occured. But I don't know. So I want to find out.

    No one can say. Background checks vary

    Agree with panther - it depends on how thorough of a background check is done - all background checks are not created equal.
