Frequently Asked Questions

Does an arrest show up on a background check before conviction in Missouri?
Yes — in Missouri, an arrest can appear on a name-based background check from the moment of booking, even before any court ruling. Whether it appears on an employment screening depends on the type of check (name-based vs. fingerprint-based) and how recent the arrest is.
Are Missouri marriage records public?
Marriage records in Missouri are generally public — anyone can verify that a marriage occurred and request a non-certified copy. Certified copies (needed for legal purposes like name changes or immigration) may be restricted to the spouses, immediate family, or those with a court order.
How do I find out if someone is in ICE detention?
The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Online Detainee Locator System (locator.ice.gov) lets you search by A-Number or name + country of birth. It returns the current detention facility and a contact number. The system is updated daily by ICE and is the only authoritative federal source.
Does an active warrant show up on a background check in Missouri?
Yes. Active warrants in Missouri appear on name-based criminal background checks through the Missouri State Highway Patrol – Criminal Records system the moment they are entered. Some employers also run a separate NCIC warrant query, which catches federal warrants as well.
