I have a concealed carry permit from Pennsylvania which requires a background check. Would this not suffice to get on post? It has a picture as well. I do not carry a weapon on post but from time to time I do visit with friends.
Your previous background check is separate from the one required to enter Carlisle Barracks. In order to receive a visitor's pass, you would still need to undergo an NCIC-III background check through the Carlisle Barracks Visitor Center. As a reminder on CBks you may not carry your weapon even if you have a concealed carry permit.

I see that the NCIC-III check looks for felonies within the last ten years. My question is: Is it ten years from the date of conviction or ten years from the completion of probation?
It's from the date of the arrest.

Is there any way around the requirement for a background check? I have a felony conviction but I need to get onto post to work.
If you are currently employed or seeking employment on the installation, your organization / Government Employee sponsor can elect to sponsor you through the denial waiver process. There is no way around this requirement.
