CAN YOU FIND OUT that I had a DUI from my State ID?

Question

Can a prospective employer find out I had a DUI from giving then my state ID...if they plan on doing a background check?

meaning I gave them my state ID number, not my licence number...and told them that I just don't have a licence. NOw i think i might have done something bad. .......

Answer 1

They don't even need the ID....just your basic info on your application.....and if they do a background check yes they will see the DUI,

Additionally, Almost anything can be traced with your social security number.....which employers will need to hire you

To Canctu:

DUI is a criminal offense, it WILL be on his/her records.

Answer 2

We don't have state IDs except if you don't have a license.

The license # in my state is red, not black, if you have had a DUI within a 7 year period!

Background criminal checks don't give out license or driving records! A DUI is something that is personal and if you dealt with the issue and your job isn't driving a vehicle, I see no compelling reason to tell them. If they ask if you have ever been arrested, but most don't ask that as being arrested does not mean you were convicted of anything, you should answer it. Having a DUI is not the same as most offenses.

Our 1st DUI is a violation, not a criminal offense. And even then, they usually ask if you have ever been convicted of a felony! If it were a misdemeanor, which you can honestly answer no! Misdeamenor's are not given on criminal records, at least not in my state, nor are they given to the federal system.

I do not believe you are reqiured to give more than asked, and some questions they are not allowed to ask!

As always. this is advice from a person who is not a lawyer. If you need the advice of an attorney you should seek one out that deals with labor law!

Answer 3

This is the 21st Century, you can run but you cannot hide.
You can stand a better chance of getting hired for being
honest, than being fired for lying. Do whats right so it don't
get worse.
