What May Be Reported on a Washington, D.C. Criminal History Search?
Types of Reportable Criminal Records:
In Washington, D.C., criminal history reports may include felony and misdemeanor convictions, pending criminal charges, and final case dispositions such as dismissals or acquittals. Sentencing and probation information may be included if available through public access. Juvenile records are sealed and not reportable. Arrest-only records are generally excluded unless tied to a pending prosecution or permitted under FCRA rules.
Arrest Records and Reporting Restrictions:
Washington, D.C. restricts the use of arrest-only records that did not lead to conviction. These records are generally not reportable for employment purposes and should not be included in consumer reports unless they are part of an open case or otherwise legally permissible. Eagle Eye screens all arrest data and excludes non-reportable records to maintain compliance with both federal and local standards.
Ban-the-Box and Fair Chance Laws:
Washington, D.C., enforces one of the strictest Fair Chance hiring laws in the country. Under the Fair Criminal Record Screening Amendment Act, employers may not inquire into an applicant’s criminal history until after a conditional job offer is made. Even then, only specific, relevant convictions may be considered. Eagle Eye ensures that public record data is delivered in a way that supports your clients’ post-offer compliance obligations. Our wholesale reporting solutions align with D.C.’s Ban-the-Box regulations and provide timely, legally permissible data for background checks.
Marijuana-Related Records:
D.C. has legalized marijuana for recreational use, and many prior marijuana-related offenses may be eligible for sealing or expungement. These records, once sealed, cannot be reported. Eagle Eye monitors the status of cannabis-related offenses and ensures any sealed or non-reportable records are excluded from wholesale search results, helping our clients avoid noncompliant reporting.
Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) Compliance:
Eagle Eye Screening Solutions maintains strict compliance with the FCRA, which limits the reporting of certain types of criminal records. Non-conviction records older than seven years are excluded unless an FCRA exemption applies. Each record is reviewed for accuracy, completeness, and reportability. Our reporting framework ensures that CRAs meet their federal obligations without sacrificing quality or turnaround time.
Data Privacy and Breach Laws:
Washington, D.C. law requires prompt notification in the event of unauthorized access to personal information, including Social Security numbers and financial data. Eagle Eye uses secure transmission, encrypted storage, and access controls to protect criminal history data at every stage of retrieval and reporting. Our systems are continuously reviewed to ensure compliance with D.C.’s privacy and breach notification requirements.

Washington, D.C. Background Data Restrictions and Regulations
Washington, D.C., enforces a range of regulatory requirements that impact how criminal records can be accessed and used in background screening.
Expunged and Sealed Records:
D.C. allows individuals to petition to seal or expunge certain arrest records, misdemeanor convictions, and non-violent felonies under defined circumstances. Once sealed, these records are not available through public searches and must be excluded from background reports. Juvenile records are automatically sealed.
Non-Convictions Reporting Limits:
While D.C. follows federal guidance, the FCRA’s seven-year limitation on non-conviction records applies unless a salary exemption applies. Eagle Eye automatically applies this limitation to ensure that non-reportable records are never included in wholesale data deliveries.
Identifying Information Limitations:
In some instances, court records in Washington, D.C. may include limited identifiers, such as redacted dates of birth. Eagle Eye uses verified court sources and internal verification processes to ensure records are properly matched and accurately reported.
Court Access Variability:
Some courts in Washington, D.C. may limit real-time access to records due to system constraints or privacy protections. Eagle Eye supplements automated retrieval with manual research as needed to maintain full jurisdictional coverage and ensure timely delivery.
Disposition and Sentencing Accuracy:
Sentencing and disposition details must reflect the most current status of a case. Inaccurate or outdated data can introduce compliance risk. Eagle Eye verifies this information prior to reporting to support CRAs in delivering complete and reliable reports.
