Post ITA. Do I need a Police Certificate from Canada?

[Lollie]

Hi!


I am gathering all the documents now that I got the ITA. However, I am bit confused, at the moment I had to get Police Certificate from the UK and Colombia (home country). but I am not sure if I have to request as well one from Canada since I already lived there for more than 2 years. any knows? I cant seem to find that detail on CIC website



Thank you for your help!

You must get police certificates from each country you lived for more than 6 months. Even from Canada.

The above is incorrect, Canada is the exception to that rule.

This is not correct. No upfront PCC is required for Canada. DelPiero has posted the relevant link.

Hi! sorry, saw this a bit late, they dont say from which country specifically . However they do request one for each country you have lived more than 6 months. Hope this helps!
