Hi,
I submitted my eAPR last week, received AOR immediately and now it is showing "eligibility review => in progress". I made a huge mistake by not reading the rules clearly. I assumed police reports are required for countries you lived in/visited in last 10 years but apparently you need to provide one for any country you've lived in since you turned 18 years old.
1. I only lived in four countries since I turned 18.
2. I have provided PCC for two of those countries and the third country I don't need to provide PCC because it is not possible to get one unless you are currently living in the country so, as advised by CIC, I attached an LOE instead.
3. The fourth country is the problem. It is where I spent my childhood and I've left that country 15 years ago (I was about 19 years old) and never been back and therefore it does not appear in my personal or travel history at all. Although I've stated in my education history that I finished high school in that country. CIC says similar to the third country, a police report is not required from this country when you submit the application because it is hard to get one if you are not actually living there. Also it says the visa officer might ask for one in later stage but it highly unlikely because that country is in a civil war at the moment.
4. Although technically am not required to submit a PCC from that country with the application, but I have not included an LOE. So now my questions are:
A. Is it possible for me to submit an LOE after the application was received?
B. What is the chance of getting rejection because of incomplete requirements?
C. Should I just ignore it?
I'd be grateful for any advice and I thank you in advance!
