Hi all,

Does anyone have any idea when we should expect to see information regarding a background check from Certiphi? I've seen people state they've already received emails about it. Therefore, I wanted to see if I needed to contact someone or just wait.

I apologize if this post seems unnecessary! I just want to make sure my acceptance isn't jeopardized.

Thanks!! 🙂

It hasn't even been a day, you don't need to bump it.

The emails come out in batches. You'll probably hear in early January IF you have an acceptance in hand.

Even after a day, this post was buried. I was just bumping to bring it back up. My apologies for annoying the forum.

Thank you for letting me know about the batches. I wasn’t aware.
 
I think you attach documents if you have some explaining to do. I did a self-check a few months ago to check for traffic violations, and didn't include any documents. (Also, no traffic violations showed up on the self-check)
