Important Items to Note
For Processing your ESS Report Quickly and Completely

  • Is your ESS Order Form complete? Does it include:

  • the type of reports or package?

  •  your name, phone number and fax number (if applicable)?

  •  how we are to return the report?   (If we are returning the ESS Report by fax, did you specify if we are to call first before faxing?)

  • Please indicate the total number of pages you are faxing so we know we did not miss any.

  • Include any special handling instructions on the ESS Order Form.  For example, you may indicate the location or locations for ESS to conduct criminal searches. 
     

  • If an employment verification is requested, have you circled ”Y,” “N, “ or “N/A” on the ESS Order Form as to whether ESS should contact the applicant’s current employer?
     

  • If you chose a Package Report, under the package description have you circled whether you want a Full Credit Report or an ID Report?
     

  • If your request includes a Motor Vehicle Report, the driver’s license number and state of issue should be on the ESS Order Form.
     

  • Fax a completed, single document Release and Authorization Form with your ESS Order Form.
     

  • If an employment verification is requested, please send the completed application and resume (if available).  Please do not accept “See Resume” on the employment application.
     

  • If your request includes a basic or comprehensive employment verification and/or degree verification, please check for the following:

  • Employer names, addresses, and phone numbers are complete and legible

  • School or University names and addresses are complete and legible.

  • Supervisor and Reference names and phone numbers are complete and legible.
