Many employers conduct motor vehicle driving records of MVR’s as an added background check for their employment screening programs. For trucking and transportation companies, the MVR’s are mandated annually In a bad economy, for every commercial truck driver.
For those conducting driving records background searches, it is no news that the price for the MVR’s has been going up. In a bad economy, states need money, and the one way to raise funding is by increasing the prices for public services.
As of April 4th, the transaction fee for Canadian Provincial MVR’s is going up from $3.00 per transaction to $3.50. Not a big price increase, but one that should be noted.
There is the additional cost of the actual driving record as well as service fees. Please be aware of the slight increase in this background check.
