Asurint Dispute Resource: Common Errors on Background Checks
Mixed File Errors
An Asurint background check may sometimes include criminal records or case information that belongs to someone else. These mixed file errors can occur when similar names, dates of birth, or other identifiers are incorrectly matched, leading to inaccurate reporting.
Outdated or Expunged Records
Some Asurint reports may include outdated charges, dismissed cases, or records that should no longer be reported under federal or state law. Inaccurate reporting of old or expunged information can impact employment decisions.
Incorrect Case Dispositions
A case may be reported as pending or unresolved when it was dismissed or resolved in your favor. Incorrect dispositions can create a misleading impression of your record and may require an Asurint background check dispute to correct.
Inaccurate Personal Identifiers
Errors in names, dates of birth, or other identifying information can cause inaccurate records to appear in your Asurint report. Even small mismatches can result in serious background check errors.
If you believe your Asurint background check contains inaccurate information, you have the right to file an Asurint dispute under federal law.

Common Legal Issues in Asurint Background Check Disputes
Expunged or Sealed Records
Background check reports should not include expunged or sealed records that are legally restricted from disclosure. Reporting expunged information may violate the Fair Credit Reporting Act if the reporting agency failed to follow reasonable procedures to ensure accuracy under 15 U.S.C. § 1681e(b). If expunged records appear in an Asurint background check, a formal dispute may be necessary to correct the error.
Dismissed Charges Older Than Seven Years
Certain non-conviction records may be subject to reporting limitations depending on salary thresholds and applicable law. Reporting outdated dismissed charges without a proper legal basis can create misleading impressions and may require correction through an Asurint dispute. Timely investigation of disputed outdated information is required under 15 U.S.C. § 1681i.
Mixed File Errors
Mixed file errors occur when records belonging to another individual are included in your Asurint background report. These errors often result from similar names, dates of birth, or identifier mismatches. Under 15 U.S.C. § 1681e(b), consumer reporting agencies must maintain reasonable procedures to ensure maximum possible accuracy. Including someone else’s criminal record may indicate a failure to follow those procedures.
Incorrect Reporting of Charges That Belong to You
Even when a charge belongs to the consumer, it must be reported accurately. Incorrect dispositions, misclassified offenses, outdated case statuses, or incomplete reporting can create a misleading record. If you dispute inaccurate case details, Asurint is required under 15 U.S.C. § 1681i to conduct a reasonable investigation and correct verified errors.
Failure to Conduct a Proper Dispute Investigation
When a consumer submits an Asurint background check dispute, the company must perform a meaningful investigation rather than simply confirming information without review. A failure to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation may violate federal law.
