Mexico police certificate

[Shanghaiyc]

Does anybody have experience getting the constancia de datos registrales from outside of Mexico? The PGR website says mexican men need the military record to process it and my Mexican boyfriend is worried. If any Mexican here has successfully gotten their Mexican police certificate from overseas, please share and I will be grateful!!!!

I am wondering the same thing. We applied Inland so it is the Embassy of Canada in Mexico that has to request the constancia de datos registrales on our behalf, but I have heard it can take them months, and that it could be faster to have someone there to do it for us instead.

Usually, you have to wait until IRCC asks you to get the police certificate, and this requires sending all documents to the Canadian Embassy in Mexico City if the applicant does not live in Mexico anymore. If you don't follow their instructions, you might risk not getting the PCC accepted by the Officer and will have to do it again. However, I've heard of people who send the PCC with all the documents in the application and it will be accepted.

If you want to try getting it on your own, you'll have to go to the nearest Mexican consulate to get a letter from the vice-consul requesting the Constancia de Datos registrales. If your boyfriend never did his military service, he can get registered for this in the same appointment at the consulate, and the copy of this registration for military service needs to be attached with all the other documents that will be sent to the person in Mexico who will get the police certificate for your boyfriend. Here in the consulate in Vancouver, they knew the whole process and we only followed their instructions. Give a call to the Mexican Consulate and if they don't pick up the phone, your boyfriend will have to just show up there.

The Mexican consulate cannot provide you a "Constancia de Datos registrales." Only the Fiscalía General de la República (FGR) can give you this.

However, the consulate can help you to obtain one by providing an institutional letter requesting the Constancia de Datos registrales. Then you send this letter and the other requested documents to someone in Mexico who will apply for the letter on your behalf at the FGR.

We're debating getting someone in Mexico to apply on behalf of my wife, or sending the mail to the Canada consulate in Mexico as per website instructions. It seems like for the latter we don't need a letter from CIC, as all we need is the file number, finger print, and photos

When I asked several consultants, their opinion was to always follow the instructions to get the PCC from the website. However, I think you need to wait until IRCC tells you when you get the PCC as per their website:

"Once you submit your application, we’ll tell you when you need a police certificate."
