CPP-O has created lot of confusion and it seems that they are using this is as a delaying tactic.

The point is. why I need to update the police certificate from my home country. If the one I sent with my application is newer (2011) than the time I have been in Canada (I have been in Canada since 2008 without leaving the country) So, It's impossible to commit a crime or something illegal after October 2008 in my home country.

I'm more than clear that I need to update the police certificate from Canada.

I asked same question a long time ago from the lawyer, why CIC needs PC certificate from home country even if i am living here for last 5 years. He said, suppose some one lend you money for some period of time, during that time you came in Canada and you didn't return the money to that guy. Even you are in Canada but guy can file the report against you in Police, therefore asking another PC or fresh PC is to make sure there were no records against you filed even if you were in Canada.

Reading all the updates from the members since yesterday. I have few questions in my mind.

How do you get police certificate from Canada?

What if one had lived in separate cities within Canada.How
do we obtain police certificates?

And I remember first time I submitted my application I only submitted
my home country's Police Certificate. At that time I had already lived
in Canada for 2 years. They never sent me an email to send CA PC. And
all my friends who got PPR were never asked to submit PC for CA.
So I am kinda confused that whether we need PC for CA or not?

The email from CPP-O which was sent to other members is not clear.
What the heck? Really we have morons working in CIC and Kenny
is worst of them.

I don't think CIC requires PC from Canada if you are in-land applicant, this check is already part of Criminality check. If CIC asks for PC they means PC from home country.

yes they asked me to repeat medical exams on a separate email.

I'm just worried about the police certificate from my home country. because the one I sent with my application is from March 2011, and I haven't been outside Canada since October 2008. So, I don't understand what is the point to get a new police certificate from my home country. If I haven,t been there. Or should just explain the situation on a separate letter?

I was wondering if something like this would be fine

"Dear sir or madam

I'm not able to provide an updated police certificate from X country. I haven't been there or any other country since October XX, 2008. The day I landed in Canada.

The police certificate from X conutry that I sent with my application is from March 1st, 2011. Therefore, that police certificate haven't changed, because at that moment I was already living in Canada.

Please, if you need more information don't hesitate to contact me.

Best Regards"

@Chimbombo

I have seen CIC had asked for Police Certificate from applicants before and they even asked from Canada too. So I guess it's nothing new...
