Police Record Checks
Welcome to the Fredericton Police Force's new online process for persons needing a police screening check for volunteer or employment purposes. This system allows you to apply for a police screening check 24 hours a day without having to attend our facility. All aspects of the process - including verification of your identification, and fee payment - are handled electronically. If there are no concerns or follow-up required, an email will be sent informing you that your Criminal Record Check complete and ready for pickup.
You cannot apply on behalf of another person. Authentication questions will be based on the applicant's personal credit file, and the questions are timed to ensure a prompt response and to further enhance security and privacy.
Vulnerable Sector queries and Criminal Record Checks are STRICTLY for applicants residing in Fredericton, New Brunswick. If you have any questions or concerns please email [email protected].
This process is intended for persons living and working in Canada. If you are living/working outside Canada, you should obtain a police check from the RCMP through the submission of fingerprints. Click here for details.
NOTE: We do not recommend that you attempt to use this system if you:
- Have lived in Canada for less than one (1) year, and/or;
- Are under the age of eighteen (18) years, and/or;
- Have no established personal credit history - i.e. no credit cards, bank loans, mortgage, etc. - that is required in order to authenticate your ID using Electronic Identity Verification (EIV)
There are two levels of screening checks. The type of position you are applying for will determine which type of check you will require. In all cases you should consult with the agency, organization or employer that requires you to obtain a police check to determine which one is needed. (The Vulnerable sector check is strictly for applicants residing in Fredericton, New Brunswick and currently employed. A letter from the organization may be required to verify employment).
If you do not wish to use the online platform, you may attend City Hall, 397 Queen Street, in person, Monday to Friday from 8:15 to 4:00. The fees and processing time will remain the same.
A police record check is current as of the date it is completed. It is your employer/prospective employer or organization's function to determine if the record check is current enough to be accepted for the position applied for. The Fredericton Police Force shall have no responsibility or obligation to make such a determination.
