It is up to immigration if they ask for a police report from Canada. In some cases they do and others they don't. If you are in Canada you can have them done electronically and have the results in 72 hours or less if nothing shows up on your record. That's nice and fast. But if you have to do...

It is definitely a process just to gather everything together and get it in order. But it sure helps if you have it all. If you miss something then it slows things down - by the time they request the info, you send it - and then they review it -it all adds time. In his case he didn't get his...

I am actually posting for my son in law. And yes he is applying outland from Mexico City visa office. It is just easier sometimes to word the post as if I was the one applying. So if my posts are worded that way that is why. Are you also going through Mexico City?

An update to say we got the fingerprints done. Almost seems like they had the forms all along, just wanted to see some dinero! :) But they are done now and sent away. Another step completed.

We will try that. Could have got them done in Mexico City when he was there to get his federal police certificate, but cic didn't request a RCMP certificate until after he had already done that. And some places will only do one finger, not a complete set. It never seems to be easy, but I...

Does anyone know where you can get a full set of fingerprints (paper) done in Mexico - a place closest to Puerto Vallarta? They would be used for RCMP police certificate in Canada.

Thanks so much wilson. We will be sure not to check the overseas visa file box because we definitely don't want to delay things. I found the layout of the form confusing so your info will help.

I am looking for information on how to complete this form IMM5563 for my daughter, who currently does not have internet access. She (Canadian citizen currently living in Canada) is sponsoring her husband for permanent residence - family class. He is living outside of Canada. The sponsorship...

No, he returned to Canada after the 1 year exclusion order. My daughter got through to immigration call line and they said that yes her spouse needs an ARC. I don't really understand why, when he has already came here to visit and he didn't require one. Perhaps immigration is different then just...

Looking for information for my family member on if an ARC is required under these circumstances: Spouse is currently applying for immigration to Canada as permanent resident Spousal Family Class Sponsorship. Spouse was previously issued a removal order to leave Canada (this was previous to being...

Also found out today that my daughters sponsorship application was approved Jan 21st and already sent off for the next step of the application. We were getting worried as she had sent it on Dec 31st and had not heard anything. CIC called her to let her know. It still doesnt show on ECAS and she...

To pr99, my daughter sent her family (spousal) sponsorship, outland application to CPC M and they received it on December 31st. She has called the call centre and they said she is still not in the system. They are putting a trace on it, but it is still a matter of waiting for their response. It...

Congratulations.

Well so far we have the police clearance for that country, and then went one step further and requested an arrest record, which came back clean - the details have been erased because it has been over 5 years. (Not even sure there was any record. ) Also, it was for someone that was under 18 at...

On Schedule 1, Background/Declaration, question 9. If you were "detained or put in jail" but you do not know exact dates, or even if there were any charges laid, (just questioned) what would be the best thing to put in the explanation. The police certificate shows it is clear and a request for...

Sense of humor or stress I think your comments are uplifting and funny! Believe me, we have done the same as you when it comes to not seeing the necessary information that is right in front of us. It is good to know we are not the only ones.

We are just going to get it translated, to be sure, and then it will be done.

Well, I thought I was finished with this topic, but now I have another question. So I hope you will bear with me here. The actual titles are in 3 languages, eg. Fecha de nacimiento/Date of Birth/ Date de Naissance, however the responses are in spanish. eg. marzo for March, Soltera for single. So...

Yes, that place seems to be one that a lot of people missed filling out. Mostly because they forgot to put N/A or not applicable in the space. It is so easy to miss just one place on the form that should be completed. Hopefully going over and over the application will prevent that problem, but I...

Really? That's great, that will save me time and money? I guess I should look at these things closer. Thanks to all who replied.
