Police Certificates and Clearances
You must get a police certificate from each country or territory where you have lived for six or more months in a
row since the age of 18. You are strongly encouraged to submit your police certificates with your application to the
CIO.
If you are unable to obtain all the necessary police certificates, you may still send your application to the CIO
without them. However, we strongly recommend that you take steps to obtain your police certificates
now
to avoid
future delays. You must be ready to submit them when requested by an officer.
Note:
Police certificates are generally considered to be valid for one year from date of issue; therefore depending
on the processing time of your application, you may be requested to submit new certificates
