Criminal background check

Depending on the offence, you may still be able to get your security license with a criminal record in Ontario. The Ministry has a list of criminal offences if you are convicted for and have not received a pardon you would be disqualified from receiving your security license. There are numerous offences not on the list such as theft under $5,000 and common assault. Keep in mind a conviction is what disqualifies you. Charges do not necessarily prevent you from getting your security license. When you apply for your security license you would still need to declare both outstanding charges and convictions. Ultimately it is up to the Deputy Registrar’s office of the Private Security and Investigative Services Branch to determine if you will be eligible to receive your security license in Ontario. As a training entity we would not be able to determine if you are eligible other than what is mentioned here.
