Criminal record checks

Last updated on December 2, 2024

Due to the Canada Post strike, most criminal record checks are unaffected as processes are electronic. However, fingerprinting for the vulnerable sector and manual forms sent by mail may face temporary delays. Thank you for understanding.

The new organization based online platform for the Criminal Records Review Program was successfully launched on August 19, 2024. We appreciate your patience as we fine-tune the system to ensure a smooth experience. Thank you for your continued support during this transition.

Applicants

A CRRP criminal record check is only for people who work with children or vulnerable adults. Learn about the process, including fees, timelines and offences. When you're ready, apply for a criminal record check.

Organizations

The Criminal Records Review Act applies to some types of organizations. These organizations must screen people who work with children or vulnerable adults through the CRRP. In this section, manage your organization account and learn how to screen applicants.
