Start dates come fast
Criminal record check in Sudbury before your first shift
If a mine, a smelter or one of the contractors that works for them has asked for a police check before your start date, the check should not be what holds you up.
If your start date is close
- Order tonight, from your phone
- Most checks complete in minutes, the rest usually within 4 hours
- Forward the PDF to the site office, your contractor or your agency as soon as it arrives
Before you order
- Ask whether they want Level 1 or Level 2. If they do not say, Level 1 is what most job applications ask for
- Site security and safety onboarding are separate steps. A police check does not replace them
- Keep the PDF. You choose who sees it, and each employer sets its own rule on how recent it must be

Valley East to Lively
Greater Sudbury police check, and the communities around it
Your check runs against the national RCMP repository, so where you live does not change the result or the speed. Every part of Greater Sudbury orders through the same link: Valley East, Val Caron, Hanmer, Chelmsford, Azilda, Lively, Copper Cliff, Garson, Coniston, Capreol and Dowling. So do Espanola, Elliot Lake, Sturgeon Falls, Warren, Noëlville and Manitoulin Island.
The Greater Sudbury Police Service polices the city. Outside it, communities are policed by the OPP, their own local service or a First Nations police service. That only matters for a vulnerable sector check.

A quick check before you order
Which check do you need?
Most jobs, agencies, landlords and general volunteer roles accept a criminal record check, which is what we do. Two other checks get asked for in Sudbury, and only police or an accredited agency can issue them.
Vulnerable sector check
Roles and placements working with children, seniors, patients or other vulnerable people need a vulnerable sector check. Only the police service that polices where you live can issue one. In Greater Sudbury, that is the Greater Sudbury Police Service. It may involve fingerprints.
Fingerprint-certified check
Immigration, visa and citizenship applications, record suspensions and most uses outside Canada need fingerprint-certified results. Our check also does not include convictions recorded by the Canada Border Services Agency or US Customs.
Not sure which you were asked for? Ask the person requesting it whether a name-based criminal record check is acceptable before you order.
FAQ
Sudbury police checks, answered
Can I get a criminal record check in Sudbury online?
Yes. MyCheck is a Sudbury police check you complete entirely online. An accredited police service searches the RCMP National Repository of Criminal Records and emails you a police-issued certificate. Most checks complete in minutes. A vulnerable sector check is the exception and has to go through the Greater Sudbury Police Service.
Is this a Greater Sudbury Police Service check?
No. The Greater Sudbury Police Service runs its own process and issues its own documents. MyCheck is a private Canadian provider, and your certificate is issued by an accredited police service after a search of the RCMP National Repository. Most employers accept it. If yours has named the Greater Sudbury Police Service specifically, confirm with them first.
My job at a mine or for a contractor starts soon. How fast is it?
Most checks complete in minutes, and the rest are usually back within 4 hours. You can order tonight and forward the PDF as soon as it arrives. Site security and safety onboarding are separate, and a police check does not replace them.
My placement is in a hospital, school or childcare centre. Is this the right check?
Probably not. Those placements usually need a vulnerable sector check, which only police can issue. Ask your placement office before you order anything. Read our guide to vulnerable sector checks.
Does it work outside the city, in Espanola or on Manitoulin?
Yes. The search is national, so the check is the same anywhere in Northern Ontario and anywhere else in Canada.
How much does a criminal record check cost in Sudbury?
Level 1 is $39 CAD and Level 2 is $49 CAD. Identity verification is included in both, and there is no access fee. Police service fees are set by each service.
How long does it take?
Most checks complete in minutes. The rest are usually back within 4 hours. Timing depends on how accurately you enter your details. A small number of cases need fingerprint confirmation, which is done in person and takes longer.
What will my result show?
Level 1 shows criminal convictions where no record suspension has been granted. Level 2 adds outstanding charges and warrants, discharges within their disclosure windows, Youth Criminal Justice Act findings and court orders. You declare your own convictions during the process so they can be confirmed against the search.
Understand your result
I need a vulnerable sector check. Can you do it?
No. Only the police service that polices where you live can issue a vulnerable sector check, and no private provider can. In Greater Sudbury, contact the Greater Sudbury Police Service. Read our guide to vulnerable sector checks.
Who sees my result?
You do. The certificate is delivered to you and nobody else. It is not sent to an employer unless you send it.
Can I get a refund?
No. Checks are non-refundable once submitted, which is why this page explains which check you need before you order. If you are unsure between Level 1 and Level 2, ask whoever requested it first.
