Are you feeling haunted this season by the ghost of Christmas past?
If you were arrested, charged, or convicted of a crime in Utah – even a long time ago – there's a good chance your record is still showing up when someone runs a background check. You might not see it, but in a world where 90% of employers and landlords conduct background checks, it's at everyone's fingertips.
That record could be costing you jobs, housing or other opportunities. Even if you've moved on, your record might not have.
A record can weigh on you, especially during a season that should be focused on hope and cheer. This winter, you can give yourself one of the best holiday gifts possible by finding out what is on your record and fixing it.

Utah's Clean Slate Law helped, but…
In 2022, Utah began automatically clearing some less severe criminal records under its Clean Slate law. But there's a catch: the state doesn't provide any notice to the person when the record is cleared and it can be difficult for people to understand whether and what will be cleared from their record automatically.
However, you don't need to wonder about these things. By using Rasa's tool, a person can see exactly what is on their record and whether those records are eligible for expungement, either through the courts or by automatic expungement. Even if someone doesn't qualify for automatic expungement, they may still be eligible to clear their records by filing a petition with the court.
What happens when you expunge a record
When a record is expunged, it is sealed from public view. A person has the right not to check the box when asked about their criminal record on a job or housing application and under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, background check companies must remove sealed or expunged records from their database. Records expunged in the state of Utah are also removed from a person's criminal history and FBI record. This allows people with old and minor records to get jobs and allows employers to access needed talent without fear of liability or risk to public safety.
