Canadian Pardon Application Services FAQs
What are the Benefits of a Pardon or Expungement?
In the case of an expungement, all information on your convictions is removed from the Canadian Police Information Center (CPIC) database. For record suspension (pardon), information on your convictions can’t be communicated without express authority being sought from the Ministry of Safety Public & Civil Protection.
As a result, you won’t be discriminated against because of your criminal history, making it easy to advance your career, travel, lease application, mortgage application, etc.
How Long Do Pardons Take?
It depends on factors like the length and complexity of a person’s public record, number of locations where you were charged, etc. Generally, you need to wait for 5 years to apply for a pardon for summary conviction offenses and 10 years for indictable offenses.
Considering there are exceptions to waiting periods (3 years for a minor criminal conviction), it helps to talk to experts to get precise timelines (waiting periods) and average processing time for applications.
Can the Government Complete Pardons or Expungement?
No! There’s no government body charged with the responsibility of helping people to complete applications for pardons or expungement. You, as the applicant, are entirely responsible for your own application. While a person can handle their own application, the complexity and sensitivity of the process demand expert help.

What is a US Entry Waiver
You need a US Entry waiver as one of the documents required to enter the US if you have a criminal record that hasn't been pardoned or expunged. The waiver guarantees a smooth entry into the US for work or leisure purposes.
How to Secure a US Entry Waiver
To qualify for a waiver, you'll need to:
- Submit fingerprints to the RCMP and FBI
- Submit supporting documentation
It's worth noting that submitting a US Entry Waiver Application isn't enough. The application needs to be "strong" to be approved. We understand what it means to submit "strong" applications.
