Hello,

CIC states that I would need a police certificate from a country if I've lived there for 6 months or longer after turning 18. My country of origin is Bangladesh but I've lived most of my life in Kuwait up until I turned 17. From 17 onwards I stayed in Bangladesh. I would travel to Kuwait every 4/5 months or so for a couple weeks to keep my Kuwait residency valid, however up until 19 when I moved to Canada to study I had not lived in either Kuwait or Bangladesh for 6 months or longer continuously. Would I need a police certificate from either country? Your advice is greatly appreciated :)

You'll need one for Bangladesh. I don't think you'll need one for Kuwait.
