• every criminal offence of which I have been convicted, except an offence in respect of which a
pardon has been issued or granted under the Criminal Records Act (Canada);

offence in respect of which the Criminal Records Act
(Canada) requires that the record be purged;
• every finding of guilt under the Youth Criminal Justice Act (Canada) during the applicable
period of access under the Act;
• every outstanding order of a judge or justice of the peace made against me in respect of a
criminal matter, including a probation order, prohibition order or warrant;
• every outstanding restraining order made against me under section 35 of the Children’s Law
Reform Act, section 46 of the Family Law Act or section 137 of the Child, Youth and Family Services
Act 2017, or any predecessors of those sections;
• every outstanding criminal charge against me;
• every criminal charge against me that,
*resulted in a finding of not criminally responsible on account of mental disorder, *resulted in a stay of proceedings,
*was dismissed by the court, or
*was withdrawn by the Crown;
• every contact I have had with a police force or service for which the police force or service
has a written record, unless,
*disclosing the information could reasonable be expected to interfere with a law enforcement
matter
*a police service has not made the person aware of the contact,
*the person was a minor at the time of the contact, or
*the information is not relevant to the person’s suitability to perform caregiving duties for a
child or to reside in a place where a child is residing and receiving care; and
• every contact I have had with a police force or service in relation to actions taken against the
person under the Mental Health Act because of a determination under that Act that I was suffering,
or apparently suffering, from a mental disorder of a nature or quality that would likely result in
serious bodily harm to myself or to another person or in serious physical impairment of myself.
Who requires fingerprints?
Fingerprints may be required for positive identification that a criminal record does or does not exist at the RCMP National Repository of Criminal Records and/or for elimination purposes of a record suspension for the Vulnerable Sector.
For applicants who decline fingerprint submissions or fail to attend for fingerprints within 60 days the VSC will indicate that
the document is incomplete and no refunds will be issued.
Please note that the timeline for receiving the
results of your Record Check may be delayed if your record is complex and
requires further research.
