RECORD SUSPENIONS

CRIMINAL WAIVERS

A record suspension allows people who were convicted of a criminal offence, but have completed their sentence and demonstrated that they are law-abiding citizens, to have their criminal record kept separate and apart from other criminal records.

A record suspension removes a person's criminal record from the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) database. This means that a search of CPIC will not show that the individual has a criminal record or a record suspension. This helps them access employment and educational opportunities and to reintegrate into society.

There are limits of a Record Suspension.  For example, a record suspension does not erase a convicted offence, but sets it aside and it does not guarantee entry or visa privileges to another country.
