Hi,Hi there! Do we need to submit a copy our Brazilian ID? I am Bolivian and I do have my CPF and RNE (RG from Brazilians) but under observações in the certificate it says the certificate is only valid with ID. So I am wondering if I need to provide copy and translations. (Both my id card and driver's license are experied) so I'm worried now! Although CIC says that if you are foreigner with and ID number you can apply on line!
please check this link on the CIC website, it has all the information on how to get a Brazilian Police certificate if you are a citizen or if you are not.

It states exactly what you said, you can get it online if you have the CPF. The certificate must be valid only with an ID because you need to show proof of identity for any document I suppose. Probably your passport is enough. however, I'm not sure if you need to provide Brazilian RNE or CPF. It never hurts to provide additional documents, if you feel more comfortable doing so. There must be other threads in the forum mentioning this. Best of luck to you!
