Hello All,
Me and my wife are applying for Express Entry Program as a married couple. Theres a bit of complications i have and questions :
1. We are indian Citizens. We have a marriage certificate issued by our religious community in Dubai. We live in Dubai. We dont have an Indian Government issued marriage certificate. Can we get our community issued certificate attested by The Consulate of India In Dubai, and will that be acceptable as a document proof of legal marriage for Express entry.
2. I have lived in multiple countries over the past 7-8 years, all for more than 1 year at a stretch. Do i need to get police certificates from each country.

Kindly HELP....

1. If its attested by consulate of india, i assume it should be fine.
2. Yes, you need to get PCC from all places that you stayed more than 180 days.

Okay. Noted about PCC.
However is there any way we can be sure that the consulate attested should be fine and not needing a proper 'issued by government' marriage certificate.

Is there someone who has been successful in a similar fashion?
