About ICHAT
ICHAT is the only public resource for name-based Michigan criminal history background checks.
There are tutorials for government/charitable users, billed users, pay-as-you go users, and guest users. Click here for Tutorials.
Things to Remember About ICHAT:
- ICHAT search results are available to view and print online immediately once payment is approved. The results are available that day and for the next seven days; after the seventh day they will be deleted. The results are NOT mailed.
- The search result means that a check of the Michigan State Police criminal history file has been completed and is ready to view. It does not mean that a criminal record was or was not found that matched your entry.
- ICHAT reports may not be accepted by all organizations. Check with the agency requiring the background check before paying for an ICHAT search.
- Social security numbers and driver license numbers are not searchable.
- Users must verify their data is correct before submitting it. If a user submits inaccurate data (such as a duplicate search, a misspelled name or wrong gender) they should correct it before checking out of the shopping cart.
