What you get

A police-issued certificate, in your inbox

Your result is a dated certificate in three parts, issued by an accredited police service. It goes to you, not to an employer, and you decide who sees it.

  1. 1
    Applicant information
    The legal name, date of birth and address the search was run against, and the type of ID used to verify you.
  2. 2
    Criminal record checklist
    The result, stated against the RCMP National Repository of Criminal Records. Nothing found reads Negative here, and Cleared as the overall result.
  3. 3
    Issuing agency information
    The police service that issued it, the date issued, the serial number, and the issuing officer's ID. This is what makes it stand up when someone asks where it came from.

A criminal record check is a point-in-time search. It reflects the record on the day it was run.
