Last Updated: August 22 2026

Question:How do I apply for a federal criminal pardon in Ontario and what records checks will show it?

Answer:C.O.P.S. Legal Services can guide you through the federal criminal pardon process so your application is prepared correctly, with clear steps for Ontario and support from a traffic ticket defence paralegal for related record questions. A pardon helps keep your criminal record separate so a search of the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) will not reveal your past convictions or the fact that you received a pardon/record suspension.   For a free 1/4 hour consultation, call (905) 718-2677 to discuss your situation, eligibility considerations, and practical next steps toward moving forward with work, travel, and peace of mind across Ontario.

C.O.P.S. Legal Services is Now Providing Criminal Pardon Services

Obtaining a pardon can be a transformative step for individuals who have been convicted of a criminal offence in Canada but have since lived law-abiding lives.  Criminal pardons, issued by the Federal Government of Canada, enable your criminal record to be kept separate from other criminal records.  This means that a search of the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) will not reveal your past convictions or the fact that you have been granted a pardon/record suspension.  With our new Criminal Pardon Services, we're here to guide you through this vital process.

Note: Please contact C.O.P.S. Legal Services by phone at: (905) 718-2677 to discuss any specific questions that you may have.

NOTE: A considerable number of online searches for “lawyers nearby” or “top lawyer in” typically indicate a desire for prompt and effective legal assistance rather than a particular professional designation.  In Ontario, licensed paralegals fall under the regulation of the same Law Society that supervises lawyers and possess the authority to represent clients in specified litigation issues.  Skills in advocacy, legal assessment, and procedural expertise are fundamental to this function.  C.O.P.S. Legal Services provides legal representation within its licensed framework, focusing on strategic positioning, evidential preparation, and compelling advocacy aimed at securing efficient and advantageous outcomes for clients.
