In 12, C you authorize IRCC to obtain information. They will extract your information. There is absolutely no need to attach if you do there is no harm.

Well, it is not asked for in the document checklist so I wouldn't attach PR card copy. They can pull up this information from the UCI you provide in your application form.

Hello rajkamalmohanram,

Hope you are doing fine and staying safe.

I just have a doubt. But before that a small background. I applied for PR in June 2017 and I landed in Toronto in October 2017. I filled out the application myself.

This is my doubt: Back in 2017 when I applied for PR, I gave a history of addresses that I had lived in. Towards the end (Feb 2016 - June 2017), I was splitting my time between two places but I gave just one address. I am not sure which one I gave. My question now is whether the address I fill out for my citizenship application exactly match what I had filled up for my PR application?

Similarly, I dont remember giving my final job record for the PR application. I was not sure of getting a relieving letter from that firm. It was only for a few months and this job did not qualify for my job or experience history at that time. I just mentioned I was unemployed during that time I think. Again, my memory fails me on what I filled up.

I tried looking at the PR application from CIC to gather those information, but I am able to access only limited amount of detail and I am not able to get my address and employment history. (The only employment history I can see is the only that made me eligible for work experience points and ends in 2014)

I am not sure how to access these details. But if these are minor considerations, I am planning to write about this as part of the Letter of Explanation.

Would appreciate your insight on this.

Thank you very much.

Hi, I have a query with regards to the QUESTION 15a: Did you successfully complete the LINC or CLIC courses at CLB 4/NCLC 4 or higher from January 1, 2008 to October 31, 2012?

Please help me understand it as I will be submitting my IELTS results which I gave in 2019 to get into University. So would I would respond NO to the above question? Am I right? @rajkamalmohanram

Question regarding police certificate:

I arrived in Canada from the Philippines and became a permanent resident when I was 19. That was April 8, 2017. However, I visited my country of origin, the Philippines from May 11, 2019 to May 31, 2019. That was my only trip out of Canada. I wanna apply by August 10, 2020. Do I need a police certificate?

Thanks
