Hi,
I am about to embark on the spousal sponsored PR and am wondering if I need a criminal record check from my birth country, where I haven't been since I was 17 (Germany).
I am holding a German Passport, but have lived in Denmark (17,5-30 years) and Ireland (30-35 years) and Canada since then.
On the official pages it states that a crc is only needed from the countries one has lived for more than 6 months after turning 18.
Hope anyone can help.
 
I'm pretty sure you don't need the one from Germany because you left the country before you turned 18
 
You pretty much only have to provide police report for Denmark and Ireland. You do not need to provide Canada police report as far as I know, since they can access your criminal record in Canada if you had any. Since you left Germany before turning 18 and haven't returned since turning 18, you don't need to provide police report from Germany.
