Vulnerable Sector fingerprint requirements:

Recent changes made by the RCMP with regard to "Vulnerable Sector" checks, may result in individuals being asked to send a complete set of fingerprints to the RCMP for comparison. For more information regarding Vulnerable Sector checks please visit the RCMP website: http://www.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/cr-cj/vulner/index-eng.htm .

• An RCMP processing fee of $25 will apply for employment, student co-op placements, kinship, student exchange programs, etc. (to be determined at the time the appointment is booked.)
• The RCMP fee will be waived for "volunteer" positions. An original letter from your agency, on letterhead, indicating your name as a volunteer, is required for the fee to be waived.
• Guelph Police fee of $30 will be waived for VS requirements.
