What is an enhanced criminal record check?

The Enhanced Canadian Criminal Record Check, known as a Judicial Matters Check in Ontario, builds upon the Basic Canadian Criminal Record Check by incorporating additional searches within the CPIC Investigative Data Bank and/or the Police Information Portal (PIP). Results are generated based on the candidate's name and date of birth. This comprehensive check not only validates disclosed criminal convictions from the CPIC database but also confirms the presence of any disclosable record information related to summary convictions, outstanding warrants, pending court charges, indictable offenses, peace bonds, and any active prohibitions or probation orders.
