Canadian Police Certificate

[Comflakes]

I am in the process of getting police clearance certificate from the countries I have lived in as an adult for my Permanent Residency application in Canada, do I need to get a police clearance certificate for Canada aswell Since I have lived here for a year now? If yes. Please how do I get the Police certificate?

Thanks

No - you don't need a Canadian police certificate.

Thanks. Am on a visitor visa but about to apply for spousal sponsorship. One of the requirements is police certificates from countries I have lived in over 6 months. I figure I might need one for Canada aswell. I got my fingerprints done with the police just incase I need Canadian police clearance certificate

So CIC will do your police check internally. you won't need to get one done.

Hi,

Just out of curiosity, what would it have changed if Comflakes' status was different, meaning on a work or study permit?

I ask because, at the time our application was sent in, my boyfriend had been living in Canada for over a year on two different Working Holiday Visas and is now about to get about to get his 3rd permit but this time a closed work permit (under skilled workers) and he did not get a police clearance certificate from the RCMP because we didn't think we needed one for here since most people say that the CIC will ask for it if needed.
