Services A mobile service is available to corporations/agencies wishing several individuals fingerprinted. L1 Enrollment Services offers services to any individual requiring a Police Clearance/Certificate in Canada or abroad for:
Immigration to Canada: Persons applying for immigration to Canada through a Canadian Embassy, Consulate or High Commission located outside Canada must provide a police clearance issued by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in Ottawa. This Police clearance is obtainable only through the submission of fingerprints. Fingerprints submitted directly to the RCMP by an applicant or his/her representative will be returned, with the results, by the RCMP directly to the Canadian post processing the application. Please note they will not be returned to the client or their representative. For those persons wishing to include their police clearance certificates with their application for permanent residence the fingerprints should be forwarded along with a waiver to: L1 Enrollment Services L1 Enrollment Services requires a handling fee of $10.00 (certified Cheque or Money Order) to process this request. Upon receipt of the fingerprints L1 will hand deliver them to the RCMP in Ottawa. Upon completion of the search by the RCMP, L1 Enrollment Services will pick up the fingerprints and the results and mail them directly to the address indicated on the waiver form. Immigration to other countries: USA: L1 Enrollment Services is the designated fingerprinting service in Canada for persons applying for Immigrant Visas to the USA. Fingerprints taken at any other location, including police agencies, will not be accepted thereby delaying the application. All applicants will be issued a kit outlining the process involved in immigrating to the USA. As well as the FBI clearance, visa applicants living in Canada also require a police clearance certificate issued by the RCMP. Fingerprints for this process can be obtained at any of the noted L1 Enrollment offices at the same time of fingerprinting for the FBI clearance. Other Countries: Most countries require verification of non criminality through national police records prior to accepting any immigrant. Fingerprints are required in the majority of those cases. Any of the L1 Enrollment locations can provide this service.
Persons applying for citizenship to any country, for the most part, are required to provide proof of non-criminality through a national police records check. In most cases, this check is conducted through the submission of fingerprints. Fingerprints may be obtained at any of the above L1 Enrollment locations for citizenship to any country in the world.
The majority of large companies and most all government departments require a potential employee undergo a police clearance check prior to hiring. The RCMP will provide this clearance only on the submission of fingerprints. Unless otherwise specified by the applicant, the RCMP will return the fingerprint results only to the applicant. Please note; a record of the fingerprints is not maintained by the RCMP. Fingerprints for employment can be obtained at any of the L1 Enrollment locations.
Persons possessing a criminal record in Canada and/or the USA will not be permitted entry into the USA without pre-authorization by the USINS. This pre-authorization is obtained through the US Waiver process. In those cases, there is a requirement for fingerprints from the FBI as well as the RCMP. FBI: Effective March 1/1997 only designated fingerprinting services are permitted to fingerprint on the FBI card (FD-258). L1 Enrollment Services has been designated to provide this service at certain locations in Canada. Contact the L1 Enrollment offices in your area to determine if it can provide this service. RCMP: L1 Enrollment Services provides fingerprinting service for the RCMP check at all of its locations.
Persons applying for a pardon in Canada must obtain a copy of their criminal record for submission with their application. In some cases, the RCMP is unable to locate the search based on the thumb prints provided. In those cases, a full set of fingerprints must be sent to the RCMP. Fingerprinting for this service can be obtained at any of the L1 Enrollment Services locations.
Persons applying for International adoptions must provide a police clearance of non-criminality prior to completing the adoption proceedings. All of L1 Enrollment Services locations provide this service. |
