Gents,
I have one question I need help with urgently, I have been working in Saudi Arabia for the past two years, I did not issue a PCC since CIC states the following on it's website:
"
A police certificate request letter will be sent to you by mail after your application for Permanent Residence has been received. You must present this letter, along with valid identification and proof of legal residency in Saudi Arabia to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. If they approve you, the letter will give you the address to the police headquarters where you must go and apply in person.
If your application is being processed at the Canadian High Commission in London, you are not required to get a police certificate until the London visa office sends you a police certificate request letter with instructions on how to apply.
For applications being processed at any other office, request letters can be requested by e-mail:
riyadh.visa@international.gc.ca or fax: 966-1-488-9657. Please include the file number, the office where you applied and your mailing address.
If you are applying at the Canadian Embassy in Abu Dhabi, UAE, you should submit a police certificate with your application. You can contact the visa office for a request letter at fax: (971 2) 694-0396 or e-mail:
abu-dhabi-im-enquiry@international.gc.ca. Please include your immigration file number if you have one.
"
So does that mean after submitting my ePR application, CIC will request PCC from Saudi Arabia and only then should I start the process? or should I email "
riyadh.visa@international.gc.ca" and ask for the letter and start the process from now?
