If you have lived in Canada for an accumulative period of at least 12 months, then you will be requested to submit a Police Certificate when applying for an Australian visa or immigration.

The Fingerprint Room Inc. offers simple and reliable service to assist applicants who are currently living in Australia. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to get things started:

  1. Complete an online application with us: RCMP Criminal Background Check

  2. Have your fingerprints taken in Australia. Most police stations offer fingerprinting services, and you will most likely need an appointment. We have been informed of possible long wait time by some our past clients. So, we advice you to start the process ASAP. You can also have your fingerprints taken at a notary office, or a private fingerprinting agency. On our website we have listed our a few fingerprinting locations visited by our clients, you can find the information here: Fingerprinting Services in Australia

  3. After you have your fingerprints taken, please email us a scan of the completed fingerprint form. Our staff will review the format, and let you know if it is acceptable to submission to RCMP.

  4. Once you receive the confirmation on the acceptable format, please mail the original hardcopy of your fingerprints to our office in Richmond BC. Our mailing address is:

    The Fingerprint Room Inc.

    1131-11871 Horseshoe Way

    Richmond, BC, Canada, V7A 5H5

  5. After your original fingerprints arrive at our office, they will be digitized and submitted to RCMP for your criminal record check.

  6. RCMP will mail the physical certified criminal record check to our office. The document will be couriered to your mailing address via international express courier service. The tracking number will be provided. If you have optioned for the Electronic Copy service on the application, you will receive the electronic document of the RCMP certificate before the original is mailed out to you.
