As part of the approval process, all process server partners on the Proof platform must complete a background check to meet our clients' compliance standards.

This check is conducted securely through our trusted partner, Peopletrail, and includes:

  • A Federal Criminal Records check

  • A County Criminal Records check


🔗 How to Complete Your Background Check

You’ll receive an email from Proof with a secure link to begin the process.

  1. Click the link in the email to be redirected to Peopletrail’s secure portal.

  2. Enter your information as requested to complete the required checks.

🕒 Typical turnaround time is 24–48 hours, but in some states and counties, it may take longer due to local processing procedures.


❗Why It Matters

The background check is the final step in Proof’s server approval process. Once it’s complete and approved, you’ll be cleared to begin accepting serve jobs in your area.

To avoid delays, please complete the Peopletrail form as soon as possible after receiving your link.
