Any idea how to get these waive? My first application to Canada got refused because they say it is not complete. I got my police certificate from the local police, but I lived in China 5 years. I have the first local police address report and the last ones, but i have a gap in the middle. I am travelling to china next week to try to get it, but my chances are low. Chinese police can be very stubborn.
I also have the problem that my no criminal report is for Shenzhen only (Where I live). The office in Canada says that my wife's (who is chinese) says no criminal record in all of china since the begging of time. My only says Shenzhen from the dates I have police registration.
Any idea how to explain to CIC that as a foreigner is impossible to get one from all of China?
I went to Shenzhen, China in September 2017 to get my PCC, now I stayed in Shenzhen for good 2.5 years (August 2012 to February 2015) and afcourse travelled a lot in China and out of it in between sometimes at a stretch for good 1 month. I had temporary registration issued in October 2012 thats it. But luckily I started a business there and had other docs like official represetative certificate and all. So when I reached the PCC issuing office in Zhuzulin in Shenzhen, they asked for for my temporary residence registration, since I had only 1 they were confused, then I showed my passport which had my first entry and last exit stamp,and other official docs. The lady at counter went to her senior and after 2 mins returned back and told me to collect my PCC for full duration I had asked for on 3rd day from that day. NOTE: PCC issued by them will be in chinese so you will have to get it notarised and translated which might take as much as a week in local notary office.
