Are MyCRC checks suitable for immigration or VISA application purposes?

No, unfortunately not.

If you're looking to a criminal record check for the purposes of applying for immigration, permanent residency, citizenship or a work/student VISA, you will be asked by the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) and/or Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) to conduct a check directly with your local authorities for a Certified Criminal Record Check, a check we are unable to conduct at MyCRC.
