Police Records

• Inside Canada: Applicants who are physically present in Canada should contact their local police service or Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) office regarding criminal record check procedures. Applicants may obtain a certificate of no conviction issued by any Canadian police service so long as it notes that Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) or the national criminal records repository was searched using the applicant's name and date of birth. Applicants should ensure that the search includes all names that they have previously used, including maiden names, prior married names, or names used before Canadian naturalization. (Note: Because records checks based on name and date of birth only are sometimes less thorough than those based on fingerprints, U.S. diplomatic offices reserve the right to request that certain applicants obtain fingerprint-based searches from the RCMP.)
  
  Applicants who have been convicted of a crime in Canada must contact their local RCMP office to obtain a "Certified Criminal Record Check," which lists an applicant's criminal history, indicating the section of the Canadian Criminal Code under which the applicant was charged, the disposition of the case, and the penalty imposed, if any. Obtaining a Certified Criminal Records Check requires submission of a fingerprint chart; the RCMP could take between two and twelve months to process a request for a Certified Criminal Record Check. (Note: If a namecheck by a police agency reveals a conviction record, that agency may be unwilling to issue a certificate and may refer the applicant to the RCMP for a Certified Criminal Record Check.)
  
  Canadian pardons have no effect under U.S. law. Applicants who have been convicted of a crime in Canada that was subsequently pardoned must contact an RCMP office to obtain both a Certified Criminal Record Check and copies of their pardoned criminal record. Additional information is available online.
• Outside Canada: Applicants who are not physically present in Canada must obtain a Certified Criminal Record Check. There is a processing fee of $25 CAN or US equivalent per criminal record and/or vulnerable sector check. Payment must be made by certified cheque or money order to the Receiver General for Canada.

Special note for applicants who reside or resided in Newfoundland and Labrador: The RCMP did not operate in Newfoundland before April 1, 1949. Therefore, applicants who were age sixteen or over in 1949 and who resided anywhere in Newfoundland and Labrador for six months or longer after reaching the age of sixteen must obtain a Good Conduct Certificate issued by the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary (RNC). Applicants should inquire at RNC offices in St. John's, Corner Brook, Churchill Falls, or Labrador City, or may contact the RNC at: Headquarters, Royal Newfoundland Constabulary, 1 Fort Townshend, St. John's, NL, A1C 2G2, tel: 709-729-8000.

Court Records

Applicants who have been convicted of a crime in Canada should obtain a certified copy of court records from the clerk or registrar of the court in which they were convicted. Court records should state the section of the Canadian Criminal Code under which the applicant was convicted, the disposition of the case, and the penalty imposed, if any. Court records must also indicate whether the case was handled as a summary or indictable offense.

Canadian pardons have no effect under U.S. law. Applicants who have been convicted of a crime in Canada that was subsequently pardoned must contact an RCMP office to obtain both a Certified Criminal Record Check and copies of their pardoned criminal record. See "Police Records" above.

In cases of controlled substance violations (such as drug possession, sales, or trafficking), court records should indicate the type and quantity of substance involved. If court records do not include this information, applicants should seek to obtain it from the records of the police service that investigated the case or the Crown prosecutor's office that prosecuted it.

Thank you for the swift response Sir. I actually searched that one prior to posting my question. But there is no specific instructions on it. I however search this one too https://nationalpardon.org/international-fingerprinting-services/ and https://www.pardonapplications.ca/articles/how-to-get-a-police-record-check-from-outside-canada/  but not sure if this is a legit or USEM will accept from that company. Plan to call the Canada Embassy tomorrow to get a better judgement how to acquire a Police Clearance.

I thought the links that were included in the info would have extended direction, I just clicked them now and they lead right back to the DOS website .. useless.

 

I believe contacting the Canadian embassy is the correct way to go.

Contacting the embassy does not help at all. The person I spoke with just gave me the same link which I have already searched and Hank posted. So I read it again and again. To my understanding is the below.

1. go to nearest police station and have your ink finger prints. You need to get the name of the officer and his/ her signature as well

2. look for a legal third party company from Canada that do digital fingerprinting. Send to them your copy of your ink fingerprints thru mail and they will be sending the digital one directly to RCMP.

I have read some blog from a Filipina from Canada and gave some legit company that can help us in the process of acquiring  Police Clearance. 

1. https://www.accesslegalmjf.com/

2.https://www.canadianlegal.org - this is the one I contacted. 

You must call them for faster transactions. You can just dload an app that can call Canada for free. It works for me. The processing time could be 2 weeks. That I believe is if you do not have a criminal record. If you have would take some more time (this is also indicated in RCMP link) 

 

I hope in the future this post can help other people too. I will be updating should this be a successful one. Crossing my fingers.
