What is a Canadian Pardon?

A Canadian pardon, also known as a Record Suspension, is issued by the Parole Board of Canada (PBC). Once granted, your past convictions are kept separate from your active criminal record, giving you a second chance at employment, volunteer work, and travel opportunities.

✅ Important: A Canadian pardon is not recognized by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). If your goal is to enter the USA, you may still need a U.S. Entry Waiver.

Steps to Get a Pardon in BC

The process involves several key steps:

Step 1: Obtain Your RCMP Fingerprints

Digital fingerprints are submitted to confirm your criminal record history.

Step 2: Collect Court & Police Documents

You must request court records and local police checks from every jurisdiction you’ve lived in during the past 5 years.

Step 3: Complete the PBC Application

The Parole Board of Canada requires specific forms and payment of a government fee.

Step 4: Submit & Wait for Review

Processing can take several months. Having an experienced analyst ensures your application is complete and accurate the first time.

Pardon vs. U.S. Entry Waiver in BC

Many people mistakenly believe a Canadian pardon allows them to enter the USA. This is false. The U.S. does not recognize pardons from Canada. If you plan to travel, work, or study in the States, you may need a U.S. Entry Waiver.
