A background check is required for all applicants applying for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit. This includes both residents and non-residents, as well as individuals with or without prior convictions. While all applicants must undergo a background check, the requirements for approval may vary based on an individual's criminal history. Therefore, both choices B and C are incorrect. Additionally, choice D is incorrect as it suggests that a background check is only required for certain individuals, rather than all applicants.
