Hi,

I have two questions to ask and I will really appreciate if someone can reply these questions:

1) I attached the police certificate when we applied for the Sponsor. Can they ask again another police
certificate? and How long police clearance can last? as there is no expiry date on the actual certificate.

2) How long security clearance takes and what do they actually check in security clearance.


Regards,

Naz

I hope this means what I think it means ..I received an email from ECAS stating that our case had been updated "We received XX's application for permanent residence on February 17, 2011. We started processing XX's application on April 20, 2011. Medical results have been received. A decision has been made on XX's application. The office will contact XX concerning this decision." :D :D :D :D ...Still waiting on an email from the High Commission to be sent to my husband ..

Police certificate expires 3 months from date of issue and I expect they will ask for another one if I am still in process when it expires.

No idea about security clearance, presumably it depends on a lot of factors (military/political involvement, relatives, criminality etc)
 
If police certs only last three months mine is already out of date and they haven't asked for another one.
 
Police certificates are valid for 1 year, but cannot be older than 3 months when you submit your application.

HI Darque Link,

Thanks for your reply that means that they will not ask another Police certificate. Mine was done in september last year and hopefully my case will be finalised before that.

Did they sent u an email ?

Naz
 
No, I signed up to the ecas tracker web site and they sent me a mail.
The status on ecas changed from Not Available to Application Received in the Permanent Residency Application Status part.
I think it must have updated yesterday at some point. I can't imagine they are working on Easter Sunday - unless it is an automated computer doing the updates.
