I am a citizen and would like to run a background check on someone. How do I do this?
To complete a Virginia criminal record background check on someone, a SP-167 form must be completed. Each individual must sign and have your signatures notarized. Please click on the following link to take you to the SP-167 form.
I sent my background check a few weeks ago and the check cleared. What is the status of my request?
The processing time to complete a Criminal Record background check is approximately 15 business days after mail-in. If it has passed that time frame and your confirmed payment has been cleared, please email us at Background_Checks@vsp.virginia.gov. Please include the name and date of birth of the individual being searched, the date you submitted it and whether it was a $15 or $20 background check.
I need a background check for employment/adoption/school/housing. How do I do this?
You must complete an SP-167 form. Please go to vspapps.vsp.virginia.gov, and where you see 'form' please choose the correct form (either SP-167 for individual requests or SP-230 for acceptable businesses). After typing in the correct information, click 'confirm.' After you confirm all information is correct, click on submit. This will generate the form, which you will need to print.
