One team, one file; stop juggling a police check, a fingerprint shop, and a pardon company.
Fingerprinting Services Toronto & RCMP Background Checks
Complete RCMP Fingerprinting & Background Checks for Toronto Residents
Toronto has no shortage of places to get fingerprinted, and that is why so many get it wrong: TPS checks are online only, fingerprint shops stop at the print, and pardon companies do not fingerprint. GBWS replaces that patchwork: digital fingerprinting, certified RCMP background checks, FBI clearance, record suspensions, U.S. waivers, and immigration support, one file. For Etobicoke, minutes off 427/401.
RCMP Background Check Toronto; How It Works
A background check in Toronto takes one of two routes: the Toronto Police Service’s online Police Reference Check Program, which processes name-based checks including CRC, CRJMC, and Vulnerable Sector Checks for Toronto residents through registered agencies, or an RCMP-accredited fingerprinting company for certified fingerprint-based checks required for citizenship, immigration, pardons, and federal screening. Bring us your request letter, and we’ll route you correctly in one free conversation; starting with the wrong check is the single most common reason Toronto applications get delayed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I get fingerprinting done in Toronto?
Certified fingerprinting for RCMP checks, immigration, and FBI purposes is done through RCMP-accredited companies; police stations don’t provide it for routine civilian purposes. Our office is minutes from Etobicoke and west Toronto, with same-day digital submission.
Can I get a police check online in Toronto?
Yes; the Toronto Police Service processes name-based record checks entirely online, typically in 7–10 business days. If your request says certified or fingerprint-based, though, the online route won’t satisfy it.
How long does a certified RCMP check take in Toronto?
With digital fingerprints and no record on file, processing typically runs about 3 business days, plus delivery. If a record exists, it takes longer; and that’s the moment to ask about a record suspension rather than paying twice.
Do I need an FBI check or an RCMP check?
RCMP covers your Canadian record; FBI covers any U.S. record. U.S. immigration, waivers, and many U.S. employers require the FBI check, and we can process both in one visit.
Will you tell me if I don't need to pay for your service?
Yes. TPS online checks and Vulnerable Sector Checks can’t legitimately be sold by any private company; if that’s all you need, we’ll point you to the right door, and you’ll pay us nothing.
How much do fingerprinting services cost in Toronto?
It depends on the check: name-based simple background checks cost the least, while certified RCMP and FBI checks include fingerprinting and government fees. Free consultation, exact quote, no surprise disbursements.
