San Diego, CA, United States, 02/11/2021 / MagnoliaMedia /

PerformerInsider announces the release of the report, “Free Background Checks in Ohio”:

Performing a 100% free background check in Ohio might seem like a difficult task. Luckily that’s not the case. There’s a wealth of resources at hand provided by the state that allows people in Ohio to search through public records, arrest records, court records, and more. The challenging part is simply knowing where to look.

That’s why this article has listed links to all the available resources for people to access, including information on performing a nationwide background search. But more importantly, let’s discuss the reasons why people want to conduct a background check in Ohio.

Why Should You Conduct a Background Check in Ohio

Background checks are standard practice when it comes to screening new employees. But that doesn’t mean they can’t be used in everyday personal matters. Whether to verify a new friend met online, get in contact with an old college buddy, or just make sure the new babysitter you’ve hired can be trusted, there are many reasons to perform a background check online.

First, employers often screen candidates at their final recruitment stage to verify the information potential employees have provided, such as educational history, work experience, and so on. Background checks allow employers to review various aspects of a person’s life, including their driving history, credit history, and sometimes whether the person was arrested or convicted.

However, outside of employment practices, running a quick background search in Ohio on someone you’ve just met can help people confirm whether said person is as honest as they appear. Perhaps you’re concerned your partner is cheating on you, or you’re worried about new friends your son or daughter has made at university.

Though it might seem a tad extreme, if it’s to ensure your safety and your families, it’s the smart thing to do.

Where Can I Go to Conduct a Premium Background Check in Ohio?

As mentioned above, there are plenty of resources available online that are free for the public to access (which will be discussed below). But first, there are three popular websites able to conduct nationwide background checks that have proven well in obtaining accurate and thorough information about anyone.

TruthFinder

TruthFinder has been in operation since 2015. They scan important public registers, personal information, contact information, and addresses of where one has lived. Some of the personal information accessible via their database includes birth and death registers, possible relatives, assets owned, relationships, and social media platforms.

Intelius

Intelius has been operating in the United States since 2003, providing background checks and property searches. Available on desktop and mobile, Intelius allows members in Ohio and across the US to conduct an extensive search on various data, including people, properties, phone numbers, services, criminal history, arrest records, and more.

Instant Checkmate

Instant Checkmate started serving the United States in 2010 with the goal of helping people dating online view their dates first before planning an actual meeting. With Instant Checkmate, members are able to download reports consisting of personal information, email addresses, social media handles, and criminal registers.

100% Free Background Checks in Ohio

The only way to perform a free background check in Ohio is through a local state database. For over twenty years, the state has provided a platform for people to run free background checks using different verified resources. State background checks are used by people for various reasons and to reconnect with old friends, family, and work colleagues.

These systems allow members of the public to access criminal records, public records, and arrest records free of charge. Though please bear in mind that local database systems are only capable of scanning public data available in that particular state.

For a more extensive nationwide search or to do a background check on someone outside of Ohio, you should have a look at the background check providers above.

Still, if all you’re looking for is a local search from one directory, there are plenty of records available.

Ohio Court Records

Court records refer to information compiled in a court file; the reproductions, electronic registers, video recordings, and any depositions. The Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) is responsible for availing all federal court records electronically. PACER has a helpline for support in checking for court registers.

Ohio Public Records

Public records capture an individual’s property taxes, licensing information, and history of imprisonment and can contain data tied to a credit report such as credit scores, bankruptcies, foreclosures, pending lawsuits, liens, etc.

Exempt from public records are a person’s tax returns, educational background, juvenile library records, and any other highly sensitive records.

Ohio Arrest Records

Link to Arrest Records: https://appgateway.drc.ohio.gov/OffenderSearch

Arrest records are also known as criminal records, and they capture the history of a person’s criminal related actions and if they were arrested, prosecuted, and found guilty. Criminal records are available to the public because they are assumed to help uphold justice with the support of the public, media, and all institutions associated with the state’s status of justice.

Arrest records in Ohio will include the name, gender, and age of a person, location of the arrest, name of the issuer of the arrest warrant and arresting officer, and location of the detention, jail, or prison.

Ohio Vital Records

Link to Vital Records: https://odh.ohio.gov/wps/portal/gov/odh/home/vital-records/vital-records-landing-page

These registers include; birth and death certificates, marriage certificates, separation agreements, and divorce agreements and certificates. In Ohio, you can access birth, marriage, and death certificate copies since they are considered public documents unless such documents are sealed by the parties involved.

Due to some of these documents’ sensitivity, there are some cases you may have to provide your ID first for verification before accessing the information for free.

Ohio Death Records

Link to Death Records: https://ohio.gov/wps/portal/gov/site/residents/resources/birth-and-death-certificates

Death records are a certificate that is issued by a medical practitioner stating the date, location, and cause of a person’s death. It is registered by the government and recognized in the record of the death register.

Ohio Divorce Records

Link to Divorce Records: https://ohio.staterecords.org/divorcerecords

Divorce records are a document that recognizes that a couple has terminated their marriage legally and officially, a certificate of divorce is used during divorce, and a copy of that decree is saved as a divorce record. Further, divorce registers can capture information about the minors, financial settlements, and any cases of violence or domestic abuse.

Divorce records are available at the State’s Department of Health. Certified copies of these records are held by the Local County Clerk of Court. Ohio does not have a central database allocated for all divorce and marriage documents. Instead, users will need to the website for the local county where the divorce was finalized.

Ohio Property Records

Property records are documents that capture vital information regarding the property a person owns; it can be either real estate property or land. This information can be used to determine property lines and deeds.

City and County-Specific Records in Ohio

There are cities that have their own records databases. For instance, Oberlin’s city keeps its public records and retrieves them upon requests using specific search details. They charge for these services at the agreed rate set by the State Records Policy.

The city of Columbus keeps its public registers. It is mandated to facilitate retrieval and issuance of those reports upon requests according to the Law and Policies governing Record retrieval procedures.

Other counties with county-specific records include; Belmont County, Butler County, Clermont County, Clinton County, Cuyahoga County, Delaware County, Fulton County, Geauga county, Greene County, Licking County, Lorain County, Montgomery County, Stark County, Trumbull County, Union County, and Warren County.

The Bottom Line: Conducting a Background Check in Ohio

While information can be found via a state-specific database, the process can be time-consuming and confusing. Different directories enforce different regulations and may require users to verify personal data before being able to access the information they need.

As such, using a nationwide background check provider such as Truthfinder or Intelius is a much simpler and faster way to conduct a background check in Ohio. While these sites do require members to subscribe, they offer a variety of search tools, features, and guides in addition to simple background checks that members can take advantage of.

For instance, Truthfinder allows users to scan the dark web to ensure their privacy is not compromised. If you’re looking to purchase a property, Truthfinder documents pictures taken by satellites and highlights where crime has been committed in that area.

Subscribing often entitles members to unlimited searches. Plus, these providers scan every database nationwide, not just in Ohio. Moreover, both Truthfinder and Intelius can track aliases and uncover information through a person’s activity on social media.

Whether you decide to spend time looking into the free resources available or subscribe to a paid site, the need to conduct a background check in Ohio is justifiable, both for business and personal reasons.
