Background Check for SA? Full time?

Accepted an offer at an EB. What does background check look like for the summer and FT?

1.) what do I have to disclose exactly? checking accounts, brokerage, crypto? Do they require tax returns too? I do some degenerate parlay gambling on DK on the side and have hit some with crazy odds which I've had to report

2.) I used to run a YT channel that netted me $5k/year via an LLC. I just collect money now passively. LLC is still active, does this count as OBA? Its video games not finance content, and I do not plan to make videos during my internship/full time

3.) What's the drug test like? Will need to plan when to stop doing weed

cheers fellow monkeys and I will see you in the jungle
