Background check update to candidates

Dear (Candidate name),

I hope this email finds you well.

I am writing this email to update you on your application status. We [haven’t received your background check from X yet / haven’t had the opportunity to take a look at your background check]. 

We anticipate completing this procedure [before the end of this week]. I’ll get back to you as soon as I have more information.

In the meantime, if you have any questions, please contact me through email or phone at [phone number].

Thank you so much.

Kind regards,

(Your name)
