Name-Based vs Fingerprint-Based Criminal Record Checks

A criminal record check is not always the same as a fingerprint-based certified criminal record check. Some organizations accept a name-and-date-of-birth check, while others specifically require fingerprints.

If your employer, licensing body, immigration office or other requesting organization has given you a letter, bring it with you so the correct type of check can be identified before submission.

Important: Point Zero does not decide which type of criminal record check you need. The requesting organization or responsible authority determines the requirement.
