Great.. Thanks..

Check PM, I sent you my tracking..
Nice, I really guess your package will be delivered today... Looks like DHL forgot to include the status 'Departed Facility in Ontario Service Area' and this gives the impression that it is still on hold...

Hey guys,

Did anyone of you choose "yes" at the question 6-j, on Background declaration document, for the "been detained, incarcerated or put in jail"?

I'm not sure if I fall under that case, since I was picked in non-targeted, mass raid by police, after some civil protest 15 years ago. I was released next morning with no explanation of why or what happened, no investigation, suspicions, charges etc.
I suppose that still would match for that 6j point?

Did anyone have experience with his/her application while ticking any of those questions as 'yes'? It definitely doesn't seem to be a 'filter' like - if you tick 'yes' then you are non-eligible, but I'm not sure what happens in the real life?
Hiya,

well, I don't believe that those questions serve as a blind filter, at least not all of them. I answered "yes" to 6d, and I have done so before when I was applying for Temporary Resident Visa, and I got that one without any problems. You just need to make sure that you put in a detailed explanation in the corresponding field (in my case, I have been refused visa to another country due to a technicality and I've obtained multiple visas from that same country afterwards).

In your case, if there is a chance of any kind of paper trail, definitely put a "yes". Otherwise, it is up to you, although I would advise to remain honest. What does your PCC for that country say? If it is not recorded there, it is unlikely there was any paper trail.

Yea its understandably a Terrorism check for parcels coming from specific countries with large Muslim populations. So it may not apply to some countries like it would others. But not to worry, it will eventually be delivered.
Dont get me wrong, Islam is a religion of peace.
Actually you are the one who is putting his words in the wrong context.... Half of your comment is - let's say in a nice way- irrelevant!! This is an immigration forum, not a religious one, so let's keep religions out of discussions please

No, there is no official paper trail of it, I actually tried looking it up on the net, in medias and can't find it anymore. :) It did make the press back then in 99 and was online, but apparently no one backs up old news that long.

Also my PCC is completely clean. I took it last year too and it was clean as well.

I'm not sure what to do... It seems like that case is not relevant and I would definitely like to avoid that whole subject because that will just raise some eyebrows over the ocean, but then again - I'm not so sure CIC would like to learn about it from some other source or check up that they do. If they do - most likely they will have justifications for simply blocking my app (provided that I didn't mention it).

On the other hand - even if it is completely insignificant even to them - it will first turn on some red flags and alerts.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts (jigzzy too).

Thanks. :)

Actually, I had a one-day delay. I mailed it on June 11th in the afternoon, so 6 days.
I used the EMS which is the international courier service of Polish Post. It was handled by Canada Post after reaching Canada.
