I believe you'll be asked for PCC from UAE. You'll receive ADR (Additional Document Required) request post your eAPR submission should CIC feels the need for it. To be safe, upload your other documents, and, at the same time, trigger your UAE PCC.I'm expecting an ITA in the next draw and I I have a question about police certificates.
CIC guidance reads: "You need one for every country, other than Canada, where you stayed for more than 6 months in a row in the last 10 years since you were 18 years old"
I'm sure I recall reading on the CIC website back in December 2017 that a PCC was required for any country, other than Canada, where you stayed for more than 6 months in a row since the age of 18 (but no mention of 10 years). I can't find this quoted anywhere now.
I stayed in the UAE for 8 months when I was 19, which was well over 10 years ago. To be fully prepared I recently applied for a PCC (just waiting to receive it). After reading the CIC website again it seems this is actually not needed, as it was over 10 years ago.
My question is - do I need to provide the UAE PCC in my application? Maybe the requirements recently changed, or perhaps I originally misread the guidance!?
One of my friend needed a Baharain PCC but had to wait for ADR from CIC post eAPR since Baharain needs a letter from CIC to start their PCC process.
Hope it helps
