Need a criminal record check in Brockville? Here’s what police want people to know

Police say the online option offers a convenient way to start the process without needing to attend in person, helping to reduce wait times and improve access for the public

Brockville Police Service says it is making it easier for people to apply for criminal record checks, whether they live in the city or outside the area.

Police say they offer both basic criminal record checks and judicial matters checks. These services are often required for jobs, volunteering, or housing applications.

However, officials note that vulnerable sector checks must be completed through the police service where the applicant lives, not in Brockville unless they are a resident.

Processing times for most checks are about one week, depending on demand.

Applicants can request a check by visiting the police station in person or by applying online through the service’s website.
