What is a criminal record statement?

A criminal record statement is a document that provides information about a person's criminal history, including any arrests, convictions, and charges that have been filed against them. It is typically used as part of the licensing process for certain professions, such as child care, where a clean criminal record is often required for employment. In some cases, individuals may be required to provide a criminal record statement as part of the licensing process, or they may be asked to consent to a background check to verify the information provided in the statement. The requirements for obtaining a license and providing a criminal record statement vary depending on the profession and the jurisdiction.
