Accu-Metrics provides fingerprinting services to any individual requiring a Police Clearance/Certificate in Canada or abroad for:
Immigration
Immigration to Canada:
Accu-Metrics is an L-1 Enrollment Services Fingerprinting Location, which is a certified fingerprinting service recognized
by Immigration Canada and is able to provide both ink and
digital/electronic fingerprinting for immigration related
background checks (i.e. landed immigrants, refugee status,
etc.).
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.
Immigration to other countries:
USA:
Accu-Metrics is an L-1 Enrollment Services Fingerprinting Location, which is accredited and certified to provide fingerprinting services in Canada
for persons applying for Immigrant Visas 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 through
Accu-Metrics 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 these cases.
Citizenship
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 Accu-Metrics for citizenship to any country in the world.
Employment
The majority of large companies and most government departments require a potential employee to undergo a police clearance check prior to hiring. The RCMP will provide this clearance only on the submission of fingerprints. Please note, a record of the fingerprints is not maintained by the RCMP.
International Adoptions
Persons applying for international adoptions must provide a police clearance of non-criminality prior to completing the adoption proceedings. Accu-Metrics provides this service.
U.S. Waivers/Border Crossings
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 these 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). Accu-Metrics has been designated to provide this
service.
RCMP: Accu-Metrics provides fingerprinting services for
the RCMP for all valid purposes.
Pardons
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 thumbprints provided; in these cases, a full set of fingerprints must be sent to the RCMP. Fingerprinting for this service can be obtained through Accu-Metrics.
