Canada Police Record - Get New one?

[Rlewis 73]

Hi!

 

A few questions: What version of the criminal record check is the right one? I see some people have an RCMP one, and some have local. I am from Saskatchewan, so I have the local Saskatoon police one. If it is the RCMP one, how do you obtain that?

 

I was meant to have an interview back in March, so my police record was from January, if they rescheduled my interview this year (lol, maybe), would that January police record be valid? Or should I get a new one?

 

Thanks!!

~~Moved to the Canada forum, from K1 P&P - as the police check has been changed in Canada and needs country specific answers.~~

When I got mine almost 2 years ago it was the RCMP check and they took my finger prints.  It changed right around that time and I forget what the change was but it was definitely RCMP

It's still from the RCMP. My fiance just scheduled to get hers from the local police in Vancouver.

I think the local police take your fingerprints and send them to the RCMP.

You have to request the report under the privacy act or something like that.

 

Here's the website that has the details.
