Hello, good day people, I am from Bangladesh and living in UAE with my family. Recently my Canada study permit got rejected in UAE and now I am waiting for GCMS notes. The reason is home ties and employment. So I am thinking of applying again for a study visa from Bangladesh this time now I would like to know do I need a Biometric, PCC, and Medical exam if I apply from Bangladesh? From UAE I didn't require these documents except biometric and Bangladesh is still under lockdown getting this document would be tough and slow.

Please suggest me...

Thank you.

Hi folks, A little off topic but please advise..

I am a bangladeshi citizen, but always lived in Kuwait. I did not spend any time as an adult in Bangladesh. Until the age of 20, I was in Kuwait and studied/worked in Canada for the past 7 years. I do not have any one to represent me in Bangladesh and I m unable to use the online service as it asks for Bangladeshi phone number and NID. How do I find a representative? Please help. I may not need the PCC but lawyer advised that IRCC may ask as I am a citizen.

Thank you

It better you visit Bangladesh in your district/ or any police station and ask them to give you a PCC.

If you've not been in Bangladesh since you turned 18, you don't need a police clearance from there. IRCC doesn't care about any possible criminal records prior to being an adult, and that's exactly what the PCC is for. Some countries won't even issue PCC for minors. I doubt IRCC will ask you for something they clearly mention you would not need to provide. If it was easy to get I would have said you should go ahead and get it just in case, but seeing as you would have to go through so much trouble, I would say it's not worth it.

If IRCC asks for it, then you can explain to them that you are unable to get it and moreover their policy says it's not needed. But like I said, I HIGHLY doubt that they will ask you for it.

What do you need the bacteria injection for? Do you have an active infection that needs to get treated? If so, get the required treatment as it is more important. You can inform the clinic about it when you go for your medicals.

I strongly suggest to not get creative. It is absolutely not required. Some medications triggers a response which can show up as false negative on your medical reports. Why take such risks if you know you are healthy and have no existing medical conditions.

Thank you for the advise, I am hoping they don't ask for it. I ll put it in LoE explaining it as well.
Take care

Due to Covid and Tr to Pr wanting us to be in Canada and if I go there I may not be able to come back. Imagine being stuck in a foreign country with no one you know or never have been to (Canada is an exception as University eases the transition into a new country)
But thank you Ill keep that in mind
Take care

Hi members,

I've been living in Dubai for almost 4 years. I recently applied for my study visa, SOWP, and kid visitor visa, and I received the biometric letter. However, I am unsure of the medical examination requirement. Will I receive a letter from the IRCC that is similar to the biometric letter, or will I have to complete it on my own now?

Please guide me.

Thanks
