Uncertified record — Driver Abstract
An uncertified record is supplied without the certification attached to a certified copy. Ontario describes certified records as carrying a Ministry seal. Certification is a document characteristic to check alongside the named product; it is separate from the number of years covered and the choice between a driver record and licence history.
Meaning in this reference
An uncertified record is supplied without the certification attached to a certified copy. Ontario describes certified records as carrying a Ministry seal. Certification is a document characteristic to check alongside the named product; it is separate from the number of years covered and the choice between a driver record and licence history.
Use the term in context
Ask the recipient which certification status it requires before choosing an ordering route. My Drivers Abstract's standard personal-record service is for an Ontario uncertified three-year record. That service description does not establish acceptance by every recipient, and an order for an uncertified copy should not be assumed to include a certified copy as well.
