Processing Times
PIC processing times can range from 2 business days to 4 weeks. While we strive to complete PICs promptly, we cannot provide an exact processing time. The duration varies based on several factors, including residency history, follow up and fingerprinting requirements.

NOTE: Individuals requesting PIC VS may also be required to come in for fingerprinting to verify your identity and fees are additional $25 for employment/other. The fee is waived if you have provided a volunteer letter with your application. 

PIC Guidelines and Standards

The DPD follows the British Columbia Guide for Police Information Checks to ensure all PICs are processed at a consistent standard. The guidelines are available here for further information on the requirements and process for each type of check.

NOTE: By performing a PIC, the DPD is in no way making a recommendation as to the suitability of the applicant for a position, nor should an agency consider the existence of police information to mean a compulsory disqualification of the individual. It is important to note that information released on Police Information Checks in some instances is based upon information provided by the applicant. A police agency cannot guarantee it will identify all information pertaining to the individual.
