Police Information Check Section - Closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Police Information Check Section recognizes the importance of receiving a Police Information Check in a timely and convenient manner and is pleased to offer “On the Spot” service at no extra charge at its Nexus location for applicants immediately requiring a Police Information Check.
Note: “On the Spot” service is dependent on the applicant having no existing criminal record, no upcoming court, and no police files in any jurisdiction requiring a review.
Applicants submitting an application at a police station and require the results of a Police Information Check (that does not contain any information to disclose) to be sent directly to their employer, must also complete and submit a
Third Party Consent form. This form must be signed in the presence of a member of the Edmonton Police Service.
