Thanks!

I'm getting all the documents ready right now.

I saw that in the application form there is an option to include a credit card form instead of a check or money order. That sounds like an easier option for me. Has anyone used that before? Do you know if they accept AMEX?

Do you guys recommend Canada Post or FedEx?

Thinking ahead, and assuming I won't get the results before my ITA expires. What documents should I make sure I have to submit along with my LOE once I complete my application? I was going to scan all the forms I'll send to the FBI, and take screenshots of the tracking information once I have that and hopefully a delivery confirmation.

Thank you!
For the fingerprints, I went to a place called Commissionaires in Vancouver. https://commissionaires.bc.ca/fingerprinting/?gclid=CPLCoKDfytUCFUdqfgodFt0PWg#pgc-8-2-0 They're a walk in service. Just tell them you want the FBI fingerprints for immigration. All the info is in the link as you also need to take 2 pieces of ID.

On the FBI website there is a credit card form which you can include with the form. It tells you step by step what to do on their website. https://www.fbi.gov/services/cjis/identity-history-summary-checks

I just used Canada Post but did tracking. With my LOE I submitted the receipt from the post office and the tracking information and I think also the delivery confirmation from the website. :)

Thanks so much barnicole. I just have a few last questions:

In the application form that goes to fhe FBI, under “reason for request” should I mark “personal review”, “live, work, or travel in a foreign country”, or “other”

Also, do I need to send anything else apart from the application form, fingerprints, and payment method? Any kind of LOE for them?

Thanks!

No problem!

On the form, select “live, work, or travel in a foreign country” and no, that's all you need, just the form, fingerprints and payment method. :)

Hello guys, sorry to disturb, just like to double check one thing about obtaining Police Certificate:-

1) I have obtained by UK police certificate on 19th July 2017 (no longer living there but will have to submit because I have lived there for 2 years from June 2011 to August 2013)
2) After obtaining the certificate I travelled to UK again (twice) on 6th Nov 2017 and 21st Dec 2017.

Question is do I have to obtain another new police certificate for UK again.

I am confuse about this requirement from IRCC:-
  • have lived there in the past, the police certificate must be issued after you last lived in that country or territory
Please can anyone advise if I am required to get the UK Police Certificate again? Really appreciate the assistance on this. Thank you

YES. because in your travel history you will have to mention you last 2 visits to the UK. in the case the PPC you have now has not been issued AFTER THE LAST TIME you were there.
