Individual Background Verification
Identity, address, family circumstances and personal history for private or matrimonial purposes.

Background Verification
Private background verification and investigation for families, employers, investors and counsel — identity, credentials, employment, litigation and reputation, verified at source.
A degree certificate, an employment letter and a well-written profile are easy to produce. What matters is whether the awarding institution recognises the record, whether the former employer confirms the role and dates, and whether anything material has been left out.
Alpha Intel conducts enhanced background verification: source-level confirmation, corroboration from independent sources, and examination of the areas ordinary screening skips — litigation, business interests, undisclosed roles and reputation.
The output states clearly what is verified, what is unverified, and what is inconsistent with the subject's own account.

Lawful Boundaries
Questions
Background verification is the independent confirmation of what a person has stated about themselves — identity, address, education, employment, credentials, business interests and public record — and the identification of anything material that has been omitted or misstated.
Identity and address, educational qualifications with the awarding institution, employment history with former employers, professional registrations, company filings and directorships, publicly available litigation and court records, and reputation gathered through lawful enquiry.
Bank statements, call detail records, medical records, tax filings and similar protected data cannot be lawfully obtained without the subject's consent or due legal process. Any provider offering them is describing an unlawful service.
Standard screening confirms documents. An enhanced verification tests them: it goes to the source institution, corroborates independently, examines litigation and business interests, and assesses reputation and conduct — the areas where risk usually sits.
For employment-related checks, consent is standard practice and we advise it. For pre-marital, counterparty and investigative mandates, verification relies on public records, open-source research and lawful enquiry rather than the subject's participation.
A standard individual verification takes five to ten working days. Multi-location, international or deep reputational work takes longer.
