Our Comprehensive Screening Solutions

Our checks search the official RCMP national criminal record database. We offer a full range of services to give you a complete picture.

Standard Criminal Record Check

This searches the national CPIC database for adult criminal convictions. It's a reliable choice for many employment and rental situations.

Enhanced Criminal Record Check

This provides a more detailed search. It includes everything in the standard check, plus pending charges and other judicial matters.

Financial and Identity Verification

Sometimes a basic BG check is not enough. We offer Credit Score Reports and Income Verification to assess financial health.

Our Streamlined Digital Process

Our digital platform eliminates the need for in-person visits and long waits. You can get a certified criminal record check online from anywhere.

Step 1: Initiate the Screening

Simply enter your applicant's name and email address into our secure portal.

Step 2: Applicant Gives Consent

Your applicant receives a secure link to verify their identity and provide authorization online.

Step 3: Access Your Report

The completed report will be made available on your dashboard. The results are often ready in under an hour.
