Today I got a request for a RCMP criminal record check. This is two days after receiving a request for my second medical. Has anyone else been in this situation? Is this normal? I already provided the police check of my country of birth with my original residence package. I didn't read that you needed the RCMP check as well--I presumed they were privy to this information when processing the security / background check. Otherwise, I would have got it for the original mailed package. AR December 12, 2017.
