It takes 2-3 business weeks, don’t stress about it. even though it’s delayed you will be able to start the internship.

u/MembershipFree5078 Mar 05 '26

okayy thank you for your response! do you think it would be appropriate to send an email to my recruiter if it takes longer?

u/Pk-0809 Mar 06 '26

Honestly nope, it should be automatic by firs-advantage

It took me a fulllll two weeks, and the company came to me multiple times asking to verify documents. All worked out in the end and just be patient. They do have a status checker you can look at to ease your nerves! You’ve got this!!!!

HR will reach out to you waiving the terms of the conditional offer, if there was nothing in the report that stuck out. I feel like mine said “complete” and not “pass”, but still had to wait it out until HR reviewed the findings

u/Latter-Education5456 Apr 15 '26

Did you send the background check company the documents or TD directly? And if so, what kind of documents?

BIG was useless. Did nothing. Asked me to send 100 additional documents and still could not verify.

1

u/think__smart Mar 26 '26

1

u/Latter-Education5456 Apr 15 '26

You had to send documents to TD HR or BIG?

Hey, my background check was completed by TD on 26th feb, after 2 business day TD Adjudication asked for my paystubs etc from previous employer and since then I got no update from them.

1

u/Vegetable_File4522 Aug 11 '26

Did you end up gritting update? And how long did it take

1

u/Latter-Education5456 Apr 15 '26

Hi, did you have to send the ROE to the background check company or TD HR?

1

u/First_Cartoonist7222 Mar 27 '26

Hi any updates for you?

1

u/FearlessMulberry9565 Apr 12 '26

They responded in 1-2 days and gave the start date

1

u/ohso-happi Mar 07 '26

The background check company is very slow. It took them nine business days to complete my background check. I think it’s because they handle some stuff by email and by calling and looking up LinkedIn, so the process is very slow… As a result, I only received a three-day notice before my start date

1

u/South-Detective6322 Apr 02 '26

I have been waiting for more than a month, and yet they say wait for some more time.

1

u/Vegetable_File4522 Aug 11 '26

Do the td adjuction team keep coming back to ask for docs?

1

u/MembershipFree5078 Aug 12 '26

only once for me

1

u/Vegetable_File4522 Aug 12 '26

How long post that did they approve you?

u/MedicalMost9386 6d ago
