Police certificate validity

[Pusheen]

Just a question....concerning the validity of the police certificates. Is it correct that instead of 3 month the validity is extended up to 6 now?

I cant find this information on the CIC website.

You must submit a police certificate which is recent , i.e. no older than 3 months. The validity is 12 months i believe.

Here's what the new policy states:

For the country you currently live in, the police certificate must be issued no more than six months before you apply.

For countries where you have lived for six months or more, the police certificate must be issued after the last time you lived in that country.

So...either one is now valid for more than 3 months.

The 3 month validity information is on the CIC website. But I could not find any information regarding the new policy on their website . If it is possible could you provide the link to this information, please.

Thank you.
