Hello Friends, I came to Canada on PR after my marriage. I have been in Canada for last 3 years. I am trying to fill my citizenship application online, one of the question is in the last 4 years have you ever been outside of Canada for 183 days or more in a row. if yes then its asking for police clearance. Do I need to submit police clearance from India? I think during PR application I submitted police clearance from India, can i use the same police clearance again for this citizenship application?
