Some countries \u2014notably, until relatively recently, Mexico\u2014 issued criminal background checks with <strong>very<\/strong> short validities \u201430 days, in the case of Mexico. <strong>If a background check has a stated expiration date, or a stated term of validity, the background check expires on the date explicitly indicated on the document.<\/strong><\/p><p><em>Example: Country A issues a background check on 1 January 2023, with a line stating, \u201cthis background check is valid for 30 days.\u201d The background check is valid until the last instant of 30 January 2023 and expires at 00:00 on 1 February 2023.<\/em><\/p><p>Implicit expiration refers to a presumed expiration when no expiration date is noted on the background check. This is the case with most countries\u2019 background checks. In these cases, in general, the document is considered valid <strong>for six (6) months (not 180 days)<\/strong> as of its date of issuance: this rule has legal backing in citizenship applications, but not in immigration applications, as we\u2019ll see shortly.<\/p><p><em>Example: Country B issues a background check on 1 January 2023 with no stated validity period. The background check is valid until the last instant of 30 June 2023 and expires as of 00:00 on 1 July 2023.<\/em><\/p><div style=\"height:51px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Expiration in citizenship applications<\/h2><p>With exceptions, citizenship by residence applications require a criminal background check from your country of origin. (Ojo: you may also be required to submit background checks from your countries of residence, although this is <strong>not<\/strong> what legislation requires). Any background checks you submit must be <strong>valid at the time of submission<\/strong>.<\/p><ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If your background check has an explicit expiration date, the background check must be submitted prior to the explicitly stated expiration date.<\/li>\n\n<li>If your background check <strong>doesn\u2019t<\/strong> have an explicit expiration date, the background check must be submitted <strong>no later than six (6) months from issuance.<\/strong><\/li><\/ol><p>This rule <strong>does<\/strong> stem from a valid regulation in Spain, Order JUS\/1625\/2016, which applies exclusively to citizenship applications.<\/p><p>Does this mean <strong>no<\/strong> case with expired background checks can prosper? No. This is law, and in law there are always exceptions. The Supreme Court of Spain has overturned rejections of Spanish citizenship applications due to \u201cexpired\u201d background checks in certain circumstances. But, unless you\u2019re in a bind and absolutely can\u2019t follow the rule, or unless you have deep pockets, lots of time, and lots of principle, it\u2019s best to avoid needing to go to the Supreme Court. (If you find yourself in this situation, you should talk to an immigration lawyer. Continentalis is associated with these immigration lawyers).<\/p><div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><p><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Expiration in stay, residence, and visa applications<\/h2><div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Within the country, through <em>Oficinas de Extranjer\u00eda<\/em> or the <em>Direcci\u00f3n General de Migraciones<\/em><\/h3><p>Within the country, although <strong>there\u2019s actually no law or regulation establishing expiration dates for immigration procedures<\/strong>, immigration officials will most likely apply Order JUS\/1625\/2016. Thus, your background check will be valid through its explicitly stated validity, or else <strong>six (6) months<\/strong>.<\/p><p>The legal reasoning for applying Order JUS\/1625\/2015 by analogy is dubious. The two instances (citizenship and immigration) aren\u2019t analogous.
