Download our FREE Surrogate Profile Form to help your clinic review and screen your surrogate.

Over the last twenty years, we’ve helped more surrogates complete pre-screening and move into fertility clinics than anyone else in Canada. Yet for many intended parents who find their own surrogate, the next steps can feel unclear.

Found your own surrogate? Here’s what to do next.

Once you and your surrogate have spent time getting to know each other, feel you’re a good personality fit, and want to find out whether she may meet your fertility clinic’s criteria, start here:

1. Have your surrogate complete a Surrogate Profile Form
   Review it together, then prepare it to send to your fertility clinic.
2. Complete a criminal record check
   Ask your surrogate to complete a criminal record check through an online service, such as InstantRecordCheck.ca.
3. Request birth records
   Have your surrogate request the medical records from her previous pregnancy and birth/births (at your expense: typically between $75–$350 depending how many providers she requests from)
4. Get her most recent PAP results
   Ask her to request a copy of her most recent PAP test results.
5. Send everything to your fertility clinic
   Submit the Surrogate Profile, birth records, PAP results and any other documentation your clinic requests.

Your fertility clinic can then review the information and determine whether your surrogate appears to meet their criteria to move forward to formal screening.

Why are we sharing this?

Because after nearly 20 years of working with fertility clinics across North America, we know the kind of information clinics typically need to make that first decision. You don’t have to hire an agency just to understand what comes next.

Every fertility clinic has its own requirements. An initial document review does not replace formal medical, psychological or other screening required by your clinic.
