Understanding Your Name-Based Check Results

Every Name-Based Check application produces one of three possible outcomes. Understanding each result will help you determine the next steps for your application.

Negative Result

No Criminal Record

A clear result means no criminal record was found under your name and date of birth in the National Repository of Criminal Records. This result is accepted for most employment, licensing, volunteering, and immigration pre-screening purposes.

Positive Result

Criminal Record

A potential match result means that a possible match to a criminal record was identified under your name and date of birth. This does not confirm a criminal record. In most cases, a fingerprint-based RCMP Criminal Record Check is required to verify whether the match applies to you. Globeia can assist with fingerprint submission if required.

Incomplete Outcome

No Criminal Record

Criminal Record

An incomplete result occurs when the name-based search cannot fully verify criminal history due to insufficient identifying information. A fingerprint-based RCMP Criminal Record Check is required to complete the process. Globeia's RCMP-accredited Toronto office is authorized to capture and submit fingerprints directly to the RCMP.
