Local Licence Applicant Guide
Markham is known for its concentration of technology and insurance sector employers, many of which maintain Canadian headquarters in the city. Corporate security, regulated private investigation work, and facilities management security are employment categories where Ontario security guard or private investigator licences may be required. Anyone pursuing one of those licences must include a CRJMC in their Service Ontario application — consult Ontario's current licence guidance page for provider and submission requirements, and confirm the specific check type with your employer or the licensing body before ordering.
The requester or recipient is responsible for identifying the correct check type before submitting. A CRJMC covers criminal records and judicial matters. A vulnerable sector check is a legally distinct product requiring separate consent and a different process — it is not interchangeable with a CRJMC and applies only where a role involves regular, unsupervised contact with vulnerable individuals. Anyone performing security work that may be licensable should confirm current requirements and any applicable exemptions with the relevant authority.
Markham's technology campuses and financial services offices include employers where those performing licensable security duties should confirm whether an Ontario licence is required. The CRJMC is the check type described on Ontario's licence application page — consult that page for current requirements.
Markham's professionally oriented workforce is accustomed to completing regulated processes online. The fully digital CRJMC application through CRJMC.solutions is one option for licence applicants — consult Ontario's licence page for current provider and submission requirements.
York Regional Police maintains an official online portal for local police record checks for Markham residents. This is an official local resource; follow the requester's guidance and Ontario's licence page to determine which check type your situation requires.
A Criminal Record and Judicial Matters Check (CRJMC) — also known as a Level 2 Police Check — is required by the Ontario Ministry of the Solicitor General for Security Guard and Private Investigator licence applications and renewals.
Residents of Markham can now complete the entire process digitally through CRJMC.solutions — no trip to a local police station, no waiting for mail. Your electronically certified certificate is delivered to your email within the business day.
