Unpaid Internships - Background Check (SA 23)

Are unpaid internships verified as a part of background check? Additionally, our hours listed on resume for internships verified with hiring manager/supervisor?

I believe so, but it probably depends on the firm. I did an unpaid internship my freshman year and a past intern called asking for documentation to show that he completed the internship. You lie about doing an internship?

 

Didn't lie. Just wanted to figure out if I should give the supervisor a heads up.  Are the background checks usually done right now or before the summer closer to the start date?
