背景調查的影響

Learn about how the background checks we perform can impact your account.

Booking delays

Background checks may delay trips booked within 48 hours of the latest possible check-in time. If a booking is affected, we will let the guest know and provide information about their options.

Removal

Removal depends on the severity of the criminal history:

• Lesser crimes like disorderly conduct or marijuana possession are not removable offenses.
• Other crimes may result in further review, removal, or ineligibility for some time after the offense if it happened within a certain period. These include crimes like felony burglary and felony larceny (14 years) or fraud or property damage (7 years). Cases such as murder, terrorism, rape, or child molestation may result in permanent removal.

Reinstatement

Our mission to create more belonging in the world means making space for people to demonstrate rehabilitation and live their best lives, while helping to keep our community safe.

We appreciate that there are many factors that could lead someone to have a criminal record. That’s why we have a rigorous, evidence-based approach to assess whether someone can be reinstated after removal, even if their criminal record would otherwise make them ineligible.

Criteria for eligibility

The primary factors include:

• The individual’s age at the time of conviction
• Number of prior convictions
• Time since last conviction
  

We also consider other factors such as employment that may show evidence of rehabilitation. Our personalized approach is based on certain research including redemption studies and other research including redemption studies and other research that identify certain factors associated with reduced risk. There are, however, some offenses that render an individual ineligible for reinstatement.

Offenses that generally render someone ineligible without a successful appeal include:

• Sexual violence and exploitation
• Human trafficking
• Hate crimes
• Terrorism

1. You can respond to it directly
2. You can submit an appeal via the link that appears when you try to log in
