Having a criminal record is a bane for any individual living in a society. The person suffers discrimination in every step, limited freedom and loses rewarding opportunities. Even if the individual has amended his/her ways and lived many years as an good citizen, a criminal record alone can ruin the reputation of the person for life. A record suspension is all you need to enlighten your future and make way for a fresh beginning.
What is RecordSuspension?
A record suspension is a document that states a person who has been convicted of a criminal offence but has completed his/her sentence is now a law-abiding citizen and his/her criminal record must be kept separately. The criminal record of a person is removed from the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) with the help of a record suspension. This implies that if the CPIC records are searched, it will show no criminal record or record suspension of the concerned individual. As a result, the person can avail education and employment opportunities and lead a normal life. The Criminal Records Act (CRA) is applicable for records that are maintained by federal organizations.
According to CRA, the only federal agency that is responsible for ordering, revoking or refusing the order of record suspensions is the Parole Board of Canada (PBC).
Eligibility for Record Suspension
If you have summary offences, it is only after five years of completing your sentence that you will be eligible for a record suspension. Should you have punishable offences charged against you, it is only after completing ten years of your sentence that you can apply for a record suspension. However, under exceptional circumstances, the sentence may be reduced to three and five years for summary and punishable offences, respectively.
