Immigration screening or immigration background checks is a comprehensive process from which every applicant has to go through. Immigration screening process is done to ensure the security and safeguard of the countries which helps to detain the criminals, bankrupts and in-eligible applicants. The Federal agency that oversees immigration benefits performs checks on every applicant, regardless of ethnicity, national origin or religion.


Why Immigration Screening?

Because of the incursion of illegal immigrants that have come to the United States, Canada and more likely to Australia in recent years, the Immigration Services has devised improved ways to check on foreigners interested in living in these countries. One such way involves the system of gathering information comprising a foreigner's immigration background.

How the Process Works?

Immigration background check involves three different processes in investigation techniques such as:

1. The Inter agency Border Inspections System or the IBIS Name Check
2. FBI fingerprint check
3. The FBI name check.


All the applicants seeking the immigration must pass these three tests before the interview schedule is given. If unfortunately any of these checks gets a negative result after investigations are made, the immigration process will be a failure.

The first process of the immigration screening: is performed by IBIS which possess centralized system acquiring information for different sources to instantly know whether an applicant is qualified or if more background checking is needed.

FBI Fingerprint checks: take about twenty four to forty eight hours, and if criminal records comes up and the violation shows ineligibility for award of green card for the applicants, the investigation will be discontinued as recommended.

FBI name check: procedure that applicants must go through. It takes only about 14 days or longer if there is a need for further resolution or some results needs further investigation. When an applicant passes all these checks, they will have a greater chance of getting into the US to live or work. In Canada and Australia respective federal agencies follow the same procedure.

Solutions to Maximize Your Chances in Getting Immigration Visa

If you run your background check yourself, it only takes a few minutes. You need to provide information about yourself, things like full name, address and date of birth. With that information, the system will be able to find a record of your past. In most cases, the record is clean; but sometimes an offense will show up on the record, and it is best to deal with these before you are turned down. It is always good to check your records and take care of the inaccurate information before applying for your visa or green card. Now days the best way to authenticate your background check for immigration purposes is to hire a decent and reputable background screening company. They can provide extraordinary services to match your needs. And at the end of the screening process they also issue you the certificate of clearance which can make the visa officer to stamp on your passport.
