FBI BACKGROUND CHECK FOR WORK VISA

I have accepted a job in Kuwait and is in the process of an FBI background check for live/work visa.  How far back is the check.  I have something on there from 15 years ago.  Will this deny me for a visa?

You are correct.  thx

I had historic minor offences that prevented me getting a job after being offered a position in Kuwait  ;(

Like what ? Previous offences?

I had a dr10 and a criminal damage (kicked my girlfriends car after she kicked mine she reported I didn't). These are all spent convictions and could not be used in the UK. Life moves on lessons are learned we grow as individuals.
