Some background details on the story - During the final year of my graduation, my father had passed away and due to his huge debts i couldn't continue college education, i dropped off but couldn't find any job over a period of a year. i had provided fake education certificate and joined an IT MNC as a fresher in bangalore.
10 years down the line, i got an outstanding rating for a consecutive 5 years, most valuable employee award atleast once in every role and worked relentlessly for myself and organization. Even company awarded me with restricted stock options due to my continued good work. Now i moved in to a new account and client had asked background verification to be done for all the employees including ones working from offshore. i had given my consent for background verification even though i had an other way out by resigning, this is because this guilt of doing wrong has been eating me all along and i want to come clean.i am not proud of myself for doing this nor stating in the above things, this is primarily just want to tell how much i contributed for company growth.
I am ready to face the consequences and fine with company firing for this reason and looking for options like freelancing where skills matter more than a degree. My primary concern is whether they will start any criminal proceeding for this? and block my Provident fund. that money is a substantial amount for me now and will help me until i put a foundation in freelancing. Please advice on how i should approach the HR.
Note - even if this background check comes clean, i am still planning to quit because this guilt has been too much for me. In a scenario where the background verification comes negative need suggestions on how to approach the HR.
