Hi, I got my ead in Nov, and I passed an interview last week. I filled out some forms for a background check, Will it take longer because I'm Canadian? I'm just curious... I'd hate to lose a job opportunity because of a background check.

In Canada, I've never had to do a background check or a drug test... (just never been in a job that required it I guess) it's very confusing to me. Usually I would just give them my references and resume, and that would be fine.

Depending on the background check it can take 2 minutes or over 6 months. Many checks simply look at your credit history and you criminal history.
