Disclosure & Authorization Forms
When providing these forms to your candidate, you will need to start with the FCRA Summary of Rights followed by the FCRA Disclosure. For the FCRA compliant background check in Texas, provide the FCRA Disclosure form as a stand-alone document, separate from any other forms. If your candidate lives in California, you must provide a California Investigative Consumer Report Disclosure in addition to the FCRA Disclosure. This must also be a stand-alone document, separate from all other forms.
