What Does an RCMP Background Check Cover?
An RCMP background check searches the national repository of criminal records. A name-based check searches by your name and date of birth, while a certified check verifies your identity through fingerprints submitted electronically to CCRTIS, the version required for citizenship, immigration, pardons, and federal screening.
- Employers and volunteer groups usually accept the name-based version.
- IRCC, the Parole Board, U.S. authorities, and licensing bodies demand the certified, fingerprint-based version.
- Roles with children, seniors, or vulnerable persons require a vulnerable sector check, which by law only your police service can issue; we'll never sell you one, but we'll tell you where to get it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where do Halton Hills residents get an RCMP background check?
Through an RCMP-accredited fingerprinting company; there’s no civilian fingerprinting office in Halton Hills, and Halton police’s fingerprinting at its Oakville HQ covers vulnerable sector screening only. Our office serves all of Halton Hills with digital capture and same-day submission.
I'm in Acton; is anything closer to me?
For certified checks, no accredited provider operates in Acton. We’re the practical option, with same-day appointments so the drive pays off in one trip; prints, check, and any follow-up like a pardon all happen in that visit.
How long will my background check take?
Name-based checks often return within a few business days. Certified fingerprint-based checks typically take about 3 business days of processing when no record exists, longer when one does.
Does my employer's “police check” need fingerprints?
Usually not; most employment requests are name-based. If the letter says certified, fingerprint-based, or involves government, immigration, or vulnerable-sector work, fingerprints are required. Bring the letter, and we’ll decode it free.
Can you help if my check comes back with a record?
Yes; record suspensions, file destruction for non-convictions, and U.S. entry waivers if you’ve been refused at the border are all handled under one roof, unlike a fingerprint-only counter.
What does it cost?
Name-based checks cost the least; certified RCMP and FBI checks add fingerprinting and government fees. Free consultation, exact all-in quote before you commit.
