Regina Police Increase Criminal Record Check Fee
Regina Police Increase Criminal Record Check Fee
Effective immediately the cost for a Police Information Check (PIC) previously known as a Criminal Record Check will be increased by $10 bringing it up to $45.
The fee increase is due to the demand for the service, which is often required by employers.
In 1997, the Regina Police Service conducted 2,328 PICs, in 2004 it did 11,426 and last year 20,153 were performed.
The last two fee increases were April 2007 when the fee increased from $25 to $30 and March 2011 when the fee increased to $35. The RPS does not charge a fee to those requesting Police Information Checks in order to perform volunteer service.
Over the years, the Regina Police Service has assigned additional personnel to handle the workload and renovated a reception area on the second floor to accommodate the increased traffic and improve customer service. Police say there will be another person hired in the PIC area. Information on how to obtain a PIC is available at www.reginapolice.ca.
