Getting your report is a hassle.
If you were the victim of, or involved in, a crime, the Chicago Police Department may have issued you a Victim Information Notice. This one-page document gives you your "R.D number". Sometimes, this document is enough for insurance purposes. Often, it isn't and you need to obtain the full report.
Obtaining the full report can be done in person. But you have to travel to the Central Police Headquarters during their shortened business hours, park, wait in line, fill out multiple forms, wait in more lines, and more. Most people don't have time for this.
We can help. With our convenient service, we will help you get your police report quickly and easily.
After we submit the request, the City of Chicago will pull the records and send them to you by mail. This usually takes 10-14 business days to obtain to your mailbox.
To submit the request, we will need the following information:
- Victim/requestor's name and address
- Type of incident
- Address of occurrence
- R.D. number (found at the top of your Victim Information Notice)
You will enter that information, pay for the report, and we will begin the process.
We have helped hundreds of people request their police reports from the Chicago Police Department.
