A plain-language look at how quickly a CRJMC is usually completed, and why some checks take longer than others.
With CRJMC.solutions, most Criminal Record & Judicial Matters Checks are completed and emailed within the business day after you successfully verify your identity. This is not a guarantee — some checks need extra review and take longer, and results are never promised in advance. If your situation calls for an official RCMP certified fingerprint check, that separate process is run by the RCMP and can follow different, sometimes much longer, timelines.
For a name-based Criminal Record & Judicial Matters Check ordered through CRJMC.solutions, the common experience is simple. Once you have finished identity verification and your payment has cleared, the check is usually completed and the certified certificate is emailed to you within the business day.
That said, speed depends on things like how clearly your identification photos are captured and whether your details match cleanly across the databases that are searched. A smooth verification tends to move faster than one that needs a second attempt.
Business-day turnaround is the typical experience, not a promise. We cannot guarantee a specific delivery time or a particular result.
A minority of checks are flagged for additional review before a certificate can be issued. This can happen when a name and date of birth are similar to entries already in the records that are searched, when identification needs to be re-submitted, or when a manual step is required to confirm details.
A name-based CRJMC is not the same as an official certified criminal record check based on fingerprints. When a positive match or a specific requirement means fingerprints are needed, that process is handled by the RCMP and accredited partners, not by this service.
The RCMP publishes its own processing times and fees, and those timelines can be considerably longer than a name-based check. If you have been told you need a certified fingerprint result, plan around the RCMP's published schedule rather than a next-day estimate.
Most slow-downs come from the identity step, so it is worth getting that right the first time. Use a valid, current government identification document, take clear photos in good light, and enter your legal name and date of birth exactly as they appear on that document.
Fully digital and electronically certified, with delivery within the business day in most cases.
