Canadian Pardon – The Key to a New Life

Pardon canada service

At GetYourPardon.ca, we understand that life might take people to stages where the only way to move forward is by making an unfavourable decision. Needless to say, this decision can adversely affect the individual, and he or she might end up regretting it for life. A Canadian Pardon is an opportunity for those individuals to start life anew.

Through this process, all information about a person’s past convictions can be taken down from the database of the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC). It recognizes that the person has been duly punished for the crime and has been put through a strict waiting period to prove that he/she is a law-abiding citizen. Canadian Pardon is meant for those who have convictions such as DUI, fraud, possession, or theft on their record.

At GetYourPardon.ca, we strive to provide every individual with the life they deserve, irrespective of the crimes they have committed in the past due to any circumstance. We have, over the years, removed convictions from the records of our clients with our extensive knowledge and experience of the subject.

Your Second Change– Pardon Eligibility Criteria

At GetYourPardon.ca, we believe that everyone must get a second chance in their lives, and therefore provide Pardon services in Canada to the accused. The eligibility criterion for the same is met once all the sentences are completed by the person, and he or she has also met the good conduct waiting period.

The sentences that we mention here can be anything, starting from spending a considerable amount of time in jail, probation, or even a fine. Some other common types of sentences include house arrest and community service for a period mentioned by the law and order. Good conduct, however, states if the accused has stayed out of trouble with the law or not.

The Waiting Periods for Pardon Eligibility

Upon completion of the sentence and before being eligible for the pardon, you have to wait for:

  • Five years in case of summary offences
  • Ten years in case of indictable offences

In case you have faced court appearances which never resulted in convictions, the waiting period before a file gets destroyed stands at:

  • One year in case of absolute discharge
  • Three years in case of conditional discharge

Those who have been termed not guilty for the crime get their records destroyed within one year. Given the time-taking work that getting a Pardon in Canada is, you might as well want to begin the application and file for the destruction of your criminal record around a year in advance. This would ensure your criminal record is sealed as soon as possible, and you are eligible to receive a Pardon in Canada.

The History ofPardon Eligibility in Canada

The government’s tough line on the Crime Legislation Bill C-10 has resulted in increasing the waiting period by five and ten-years before someone is eligible for a pardon. Before this bill was passed, the summary and indictable offences had waiting periods of three and five years, respectively.

Having said so, way before the C-10 was in place, the House of Commons had passed another legislation bill. Also referred to as Bill C23A, it included all the previous eligibility waiting periods for offences at three and five years. Nonetheless, for causing serious personal injury or sexual offence the waiting period stands at ten years before the accused could be pardoned.

At GetYourPardon.ca, we ensure that all candidates coming out of this waiting period and eligible for Pardon in Canada would have a clear criminal record for them to start life anew.

Pardons – Processing Time

Before processing a pardon application, please bear in mind that the pardon timeframe can never be guaranteed under any circumstances. The pardon timeframe is usually determined by the government agencies involved in obtaining the required documentation. It also depends on how organized, experienced, and skilful your pardon service provider is.

Determining Factors

A deeper understanding of the procedure will help you to realize the difficulty in predicting a fixed timeframe. The entire range of receiving pardon involves multiple departments and officials. We have to await the documentation from the RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police), the conviction record from the honourable Court, as well as the results of a local police checking. These institutions and their time schedules must be taken into account before your application for a pardon is ready for submission to the Parole Board of Canada.

Estimated Time Frame

Despite the uncertainty of predicting an accurate processing period, a reliable and recognized pardon agency like GetYourPardon.ca should be able to provide you with a reasonable time frame based on its past experience.

Generally, the average turnaround time for a Canadian pardon application is around 12 months. However, during our course of work, we observed that some files are processed in 4 months time as well. We take care of all our clients and their unique cases, and with our efficient administrative procedure, we seek to close their past records as fast as possible.

But please keep in mind that these time frames are subject to change depending on the contemporary situation and individuality of your case. Nevertheless, at GetYourPardon.ca, we take every initiative to keep you updated with the work progress.
