Brill thanks, I'll probably get it done soon then to be safe. So could I ask (sorry) - the VO asks you for the certificates? I thought you got that request as soon as you got SA. Looking at the above, they asked him for a Canada certificate too?? Oh boy I have some admin to do!This is a tricky one because while requirements say this, what the VOs ask for if often different.
My husband is an Irish citizen, was living in Canada for a few years before we applied, and had travelled to Australia for less than 1 year a decade before we applied. We submitted the Irish cert and they asked for RCMP check, prints, AND the Aussie cert. Luckily we decided to get them done upfront so we'd have them in case, and I was glad we did so it didn't slow anything down.
