In order to apply for your Police Record Check, you will need the following:
1. BIG NEW CHANGE:
Whether applying for employment, volunteer work, or for education purposes,
Applicants will now have to provide a letter from the Agency or Organization requesting the Police Record Check identifying whether that Applicant requires a Police Information Check (PIC) or a Police Vulnerable Sector Check (PVSC).
2. AS ALWAYS:
An Applicant must provide two (2) valid pieces of identification; one of which must be government-issued and include the Applicant's name, date of birth, signature and photo.
