When my husband re-did his, he was asked to bring 2 passport sized photos, his passport, the application number (The one that starts with B or F), and the Appendix C. Bring these along just in case because maybe they do it differently there. Or maybe that woman is just one of those ones who pretends to know everything :p
Here is the link for the Appendix C:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/3911e.pdf
It's the very last page. Just when you click print, click the dot that says "pages" and then type the page number of Appendix C. That way you don't have to print the whole thing.
After I typed my message, I went on a frantic trying to find appendix C, but thank-you sooo very much for putting the link and for answering my question :)! I can pass the msg along and now sleeeeep with ease. :D Good luck with your papers xoxo. Have a great day :D

On their website, it says they are closed Dec. 25th and 26th. I'm not sure about New Years since the ones posted are from last year. They will probably be closed Jan. 1st and/or 2nd as well. But all of the other days in between I believe are normal working days :D
It seems that the situation going to be a little bit better in Syria. "Both the Qatari and the Omani foreign ministers have said that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad will sign an Arab peace plan to end the ten-month violent crackdown against protesters and dissent before an Arab League meeting later this week." I hope it is true.

Criminal records are valid for one year...so if it will expire soon then yes re-do it.

some people were asked for new police clearance (record) others no... it looks more case by case scenario....or maybe they ask more from male than female applicants...anyway, the Syrian one and many others r valid just 90 days!!! so first check how long was valid the first one, if it was just 90 days maybe don't get it yet (they might not ask or when they ask it might b expired already)...it's like gambling ;) if it's valid for 6 months, 1 year, then why not, have it ready in case they ask :)
