  • Application for Record Suspension (Pardon)

  • What is a Record Suspension?

    A Record Suspension (aka a Pardon) allows people convicted of a criminal offence to have their criminal record kept separate and apart from other criminal records.

    That means, your convictions get set aside. This can help with getting a job, and travel.

    Why get a Record Suspension?

    The Parole Board of Canada (PBC) is the government agency that decides who gets a Record Suspension (and who doesn’t). You can learn more here.

    If you are a KIA beneficiary, you can ask for free help with your application by contacting your Community Liaison Officer.

    Submitting this form does not guarantee your acceptance into the program and does not establish a solicitor client-relationship with lawyer Paul Falvo. It is a request for assistance. Your application will be screened before acceptance.

    Are you eligible?

    To be eligible, you must be a Kitikmeot beneficiary and enrolled in the Nunavut Agreement. You must have completed your sentence (including Probation) five years ago or more. If you were sentenced to a Fine, and you did not pay it, you will not get a Record Suspension. Pay it now and wait five years, then apply.

    If you have had recent trouble with police, including “drunk tank,” even if you did not get charged or arrested, your application may be questioned or denied.

    It takes a long time!

    It can take three years, or even more, to get a record suspension! Start now. Keep a copy of this application for your records.

    If you have questions, please contact KIA or Paul Falvo.
