Background Checks
Why is a background check required?
The Kingdom of Kush is committed to protecting the integrity of its citizenship program while giving applicants a fair and understanding review. We recognize that historical and continuing racism and discrimination in government, credit-reporting, and criminal-justice systems can leave people of African descent with derogatory records or other blemishes that do not fairly reflect their character.
For that reason, the Kingdom makes every effort to be accommodating, understanding, and fair, rather than automatically rejecting people for minor or explainable problems in their records. Our goal is to approve as many qualified applicants as possible. We are particularly concerned about serious criminal convictions, documented fraud, deliberately falsified information, and other serious findings that could compromise the integrity and security of the Kingdom and its citizens. Every applicant is reviewed individually, and approval cannot be guaranteed.
How long does the background check take?
Does everyone pass the background check?
What happens if I do not pass?
In the event you do not pass the background check, you will receive a copy of your background check report. You may contact the Kingdom of Kush to provide explanations regarding derogatory information, identify any inaccuracies, or request a review of the findings. Any rights provided by applicable law to dispute inaccurate background-check information or obtain a corrected report remain fully applicable.
If the decision is upheld, your subscription ends, no additional subscription payments are due, and the Kingdom will not continue the citizenship or passport process. Under the Kingdom's stated policy, payments for benefits already provided or processing already completed, including the background-check fee, are not refunded, subject to applicable law.
What information is required for the background check?
Applicants must provide:
- Full legal name
- Telephone number
- Email address
- Driver's license number and issuing state or province
- Date of birth
- Gender
- Marital status
- Any previous legal names
- Residential addresses for the past five years
- Disclosure and explanation of any serious criminal convictions
- Signed background-check authorization
All personal information submitted for the background check will be provided through the designated background-check form to the company responsible for conducting the review. Applicants must submit sensitive personal information only through that designated form, not through ordinary email.
If a Social Security number is required, the background-check organization will request it directly through its designated submission platform. The platform’s security arrangements must be confirmed before applicants submit sensitive information.

Passport

Does Payment 5 mean I receive a passport immediately?
Where can the passport be used for international travel?
The Kingdom of Kush identifies Guinea-Bissau, Niger, The Gambia, and Indonesia in connection with its passport recognition efforts. Before traveling, obtain direct confirmation from the relevant immigration or border-control authorities of each destination country that the United States of Africa passport will be accepted at the specific airport or land-border crossing you intend to use.
Travelers should carry their currently recognized passport, such as a valid U.S. passport where applicable, and verify all entry, visa, and travel-document requirements with the destination authorities before traveling. Kingdom citizenship documents do not automatically grant foreign-country immigration, residence, banking, or business rights. Using a document where it is not accepted may result in legal or administrative consequences.
