FACTA Requirements for Identity Theft and Red Flags SHRM recently put out the following advisory: “Employers who conduct background checks are gearing up to comply with a final rule on address discrepancies from (national) consumer reporting agencies. The Federal Trade Commission issued a final rule in the Nov. 9, 2007, Federal Register concerning address discrepancies under the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act of 2003 (FACT Act) and identity-theft red flags. Covered entities must be in full compliance with the rule by Nov. 1, 2008. Thought the identity-theft red flag rules will be significant for entities that extend credit, the final rule’s provisions on what an employer must do upon the receipt of an address discrepancy apply to all employers conducting background checks, not just businesses extending credit.”
You can find more information about address discrepancy rules in Section 315 of the FACT Act, which amended the Fair Credit Reporting Act. According to the FTC (Federal Trade Commission), “the final rules require users of consumer reports to develop reasonable policies and procedures to apply when they receive a notice of address discrepancy from a consumer reporting agency.” We’ve also included a document from our law firm telling you more about the ruling.
The following are current court announcements or delays due to unforeseen circumstances or legislative changes that may affect the turnaround time or search requirements of your requests.
