To get fingerprints taken for an RCMP criminal background check, you will have to go to the nearest police station. We suggest calling ahead to ensure a smooth process. Once you get to the police station, your fingerprints will be taken on the FBI form FD258 which is accepted for Canadian background checks.
Generally speaking, Canadian Criminal records remain until the individual is 80 years old with no criminal activity reported in the last 10 years. This means if you have been convicted of a criminal offense for which you have not been pardoned for in Canada and are below the age of 80, these convictions will show up in your criminal record check. If you were convicted of an offense as a young offender but have not been convicted as an adult, the record offense will be sealed after the applicable waiting period has passed.
Neither the Canadian Embassy nor Canadian Consulates provide criminal background checks. They also are not able to give any information or updates about a criminal background check. If you require a Canadian criminal background check while residing in the USA, you must use an accredited company such as Reliability Screening.
