Anchorage, AK Public Records

• What are the laws for access to criminal background checks?
  The Alaska statute (AS) 12.62.160 is the law about criminal background checks. The state allows anyone to conduct the search and mentions what the public needs to do to request a copy. The law also authorizes employers looking to request the criminal history of applicants to obtain a more comprehensive investigation. The request from the Alaska Department of Public Safety Criminal Justice Information system offers the screening of persons looking for employment to care for the elderly and young children. The Criminal Records and Identification Bureau provides two ways to search. A more accurate fingerprint search can reveal a better comprehensive criminal history report. As per the safety department, a name-based search can 'miss criminal history reported to the state's Central Repository.
