The New Hampshire Criminal Record Release Authorization Form is a document used to grant permission for the release of criminal records from the New Hampshire Department of Justice. This form is used to authorize the release of criminal records to the individual or business requesting them. There are two types of New Hampshire Criminal Record Release Authorization Forms: the General Release Form and the Expedited Release Form. The General Release Form is used to request the release of criminal records that are more than 10 years old or have been expunged. The Expedited Release Form is used to request the release of criminal records that are less than 10 years old. Both forms require the signature of the individual who is authorizing the release of the criminal records. All information on the form must be filled out accurately and completely in order for the request to be processed.
