I would like to know any of the good, the bad, or the neutrals with Hireright as a background check company for OE.

Database used: TWN, and sometimes IRS data

TrueScreen has a very nice QA on their website where they describe how they verify work history. They use TWN and.. IRS data. They even list the forms required. The IRS is tight as a drum when it comes to taxpayer privacy. If it weren’t then the tax returns if a certain former president would have leaked years ago.
The only way they can get information from the IRS is if you sign the form giving them permission. The lesson here is that if a BGC wants you to sign an IRS form then the answer needs to be hell no. This is none of their business anyway. If anyone has any other information on TrueSceeen, please let us know.
We know that working under Booz Allen among other federal contracting companies have used Booz Allen, and we have seen some members in private DMs report that there can be some employment data lifted even with a frozen TWN. Proceed with caution if using booz allen as a J2 or J3....
