What the Georgia release form does

The Hireright Criminal History Georgia Release Form is a consent document that authorizes a criminal-history check for a Georgia background-screening process. The applicant provides identifying information, confirms the requested search, and signs a release allowing the designated screening party to obtain and use eligible records. In signNow, upload the form, let the editor detect fillable fields, place signature and date fields, and send it to the applicant. The completed form is returned with an audit trail showing signing activity, timestamps, and document history.

Retain the signed release correctly

Use a documented retention and access process for the signed form, audit trail, and applicant information.

Set retention from the underlying record

Retain the signed Georgia release form and its audit trail together, using an access-controlled repository that preserves the record in a reproducible electronic format. The applicable retention period depends on the underlying employment or screening record; confirm Georgia and industry requirements before setting a deletion date.

Export the audit trail with the form

Export the signNow audit trail after completion and associate it with the exact Hireright Criminal History Georgia Release Form. Preserve signer identity details, timestamps, and action history so the organization can demonstrate consent and document integrity under ESIGN and applicable UETA provisions.

Restrict access to applicant records

Limit access to personnel who administer screening or review applicant files. Criminal-history and identifying information should not be placed in unrestricted shared folders; use role-based permissions and review access when an employee changes responsibilities.

Verify completeness before archival

Before archival, compare the signed form with the submitted applicant information and confirm every required consent field is complete. Keep the final PDF and completion evidence together, and document any correction through a new signing event rather than overwriting the record.

Troubleshoot Georgia release-form signing

Resolve document, signer, audit-trail, plan, and compliance questions before relying on a completed criminal-history release.

Upload the original PDF again, then confirm the Georgia release form’s text and page order before placing fields. signNow Business includes document upload, templates, and audit trails, so the issue may be a damaged source file rather than plan availability.

Open the document editor and inspect every detected field. Add a signature, date, and consent field manually when needed, then assign each field to the applicant. signNow’s field tools support correcting auto-detection before the release form is sent.

Use the email invitation or generate a signing link after assigning the applicant role. If the applicant cannot open the link, resend it and verify the address. Business Premium adds quick invite links, while the core signing workflow remains available on Business.

The signed release form should show the applicant’s completed fields and a completion record. Export the audit trail from the document’s history and retain it with the form. signNow lists timestamps and actions for evidentiary review under ESIGN and UETA.

Business is listed at $8 per user per month with annual billing and includes 100 signature invites per user annually. Business Premium is $15 annually and adds bulk send. Enterprise is $30 annually and adds advanced signer authentication and integrations.

A release form involving protected health information may require a HIPAA-compliant workflow and business associate agreement. signNow identifies HIPAA compliance as available with a BAA; confirm that the screening organization’s own procedures and Georgia requirements are also satisfied.
