CPIC CHECK

Name based criminal record checks are processed by searching The Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) system. It consists of a check based solely on a persons name and date of birth. This is also referred to as a Name Check or Criminal Background Search.

How it works

An individual’s name and date of birth are compared against the RCMP’s database of convicted criminals to search for a match. In the event of a possible match you will be required to submit fingerprints to be certain that the individual you are screening is/or is not the one found in the criminal history database.
