Did you know you can use an online police check to get your criminal record and judicial matters check online?

Organizations request a criminal record and judicial matters check when they require a criminal record check in addition to whether you have any outstanding entries and charges.

A criminal record and judicial matters check will include:

  • Criminal convictions from the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) and/or local databases.
  • Summary convictions for five years.
  • Outstanding entries, such as charges and warrants, judicial orders, peace bonds, probation, and prohibition orders.
  • Absolute and conditional discharges.
  • Convictions where a record suspension has been granted if authorized under the Criminal Records Act or another act or regulation.

However, a criminal record and judicial matters check will not include:

  • Convictions where a record suspension has been granted.
  • Convictions under provincial statutes.
  • Local police contact.
  • Ministry of Transportation information.
  • The Special Interest Police category of CPIC.
  • Family Court restraining orders.
  • Foreign information.
  • Any reference to incidents involving mental health contact.
  • Any reference to contagious diseases.
  • A vulnerable sector check.

Because a criminal record and judicial matters check doesn’t include a vulnerable sector check, roles that involve working with children and vulnerable persons won’t require one. Otherwise, the types of jobs that may require a criminal record and judicial matters check can include:

  • A position with an organization’s board of directors.
  • IT personnel.
  • Skilled labour position at daycares, schools, hospitals, and long-term care facilities.

These are just a few examples. Be sure to confirm with your employer about the type of background check they need before making your request.

You can get a criminal record and judicial matters check online or in person. For in-person, you’ll need to visit your local police service. You will need to have two pieces of government-issued identification. One must contain a photograph and signature, and one must include your full name and date of birth.

Examples of acceptable forms of identification include:

  • Driver’s licence
  • Passport
  • Permanent resident card
  • International student card
  • Indian status card
  • Birth certificate
  • Immigration papers

Be sure to confirm with your local police service about the types of identification they accept.

Processing times for in-person criminal and judicial matters checks can vary depending on the volume of requests and the service’s procedures.
