Dear Asivad,

Do you think ordering GCMS notes plenty of times (4-5 times) gives an annoying impression on the officers? Just wondering your personal thoughts
Probably not. The case officer doesn't process GCMS requests so it doesn't cost them anything in terms of time or effort. Plus it is your legal right to ask for notes whenever you want. Having said that, 4-5 requests spread over 4-5 months isn't nearly as frustrating (and useful) as the same number of requests spread over 2 months. So people should not take the system for granted.

Thanks Asivad.

I have a problem filling the Schedule A. I have visa refusal before (US B1B2 visa, and refused Canadian student visa for first time)

In my application there are two questions about statutory question.

1. Has (applicant name) you been refused refugee status, or an immigrant or permanent resident visa (including a Certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQ) or application to the Provincial nominee Program) or visitor or temporary resident visa, to Canada or any other country?

2. Has (applicant name) ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry or ordered to leave Canada or any other country?:

I answered Yes to the both questions.

However, in schedule A, question 2 is slightly different from PR application.

1. been refused refugee status, an immigrant or permanent resident visa (including... or application to the Provincial Nominee Program) or visitor or temporary resident visa, to Canada or other country?

2. been refused admission to, or ordered to leave, Canada or any other country?

I answered Yes to first question, but second question, i never denied the entry or ordered to leave the country. What should i select for question 2?

Also, what do i need to fill for the question (Your full name written in your native language or script)?

Answer No to the 2nd question. You don't have to input anything for that native language question.

Hello Asivad Anac,

My first PR application was rejected for being incomplete (police certificate).

now i got ITA again and i'm in application process.

There are 2 questions in "Statutory Questions" section which are;

Has X you been refused refugee status, or an immigrant or permanent resident visa (including a Certificat de sélection du Québec (CSQ) or application to the Provincial nominee Program) or visitor or temporary resident visa, to Canada or any other country?

AND

Has X ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry or ordered to leave Canada or any other country?


Should i answer YES to these questions? If yes, should i make an explanation in my Letter of Explanation since there is no explanation box appears after choosing "yes" in "Statutory Questions" section?

Thank you in advance

regards

Answer Yes to both these questions. You will receive a Schedule A request later in the process wherein you will be given an opportunity to explain this further - you can choose to add in a short explanation upfront as well.

Asivad,

Do we need "Police Clearance Certificates" for dependents (like spouse) as well, who are not accompanying?

Alright !

I was checking this link - www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-how.asp and found below:

2. Police certificates
To immigrate to Canada, you and any family members 18 and older must include their police certificates as part of the application for permanent residence.

Now repeating same question: If dependent is not coming then how can they be part of application? If I go by above then Do I need to get PCC for all my family members?

Whether the dependent(s) accompany you or not, you are required to provide their PCC(s) and medicals.
