What happens if there is an error on CHRC submittals?

• A. Errors on CHRC submittals must be sent as a new CHRC and will require a charge.
• B. Errors on CHRC submittals are fixed at no charge.
• C. The FBI corrects the CHRC automatically.
• D. CHRC errors are ignored.

Answer: (A)

When there is an error on CHRC submittals, you must submit a new CHRC with the corrected information, and a charge applies for the new submission. The system doesn’t allow in-place edits to a previously submitted CHRC, so fixes are handled by issuing a fresh request and re-running the background check. This ensures the final result is based on accurate data. Automatic corrections by the FBI don’t occur, and CHRCs aren’t simply ignored—the proper path is to re-submit and pay the applicable fee.
