No,I am talking about the person who is entering from US to Canada or from Canada to US.
they can check their criminal record seriously.
I know one case when I was in Canada,he was not allowed to enter in US because he had criminal record in Canada.
how US knew,he had criminal record in Canada.
US and Canada shares limited information regarding person entering in their country.

the United States and some other foreign countries have access to the Canadian Police Information Centre (CPIC) system, customs officials use the CPIC system to determine whether individuals have criminal records. If a person has a criminal record and/or travel waiver, U.S. Customs will enter the person's criminal record information into their own system - where it will stay indefinitely. If a person tries to enter the U.S. in the future, regardless of whether he or she has received a pardon, Customs officials will have the criminal record documented in their system.
Canadian pardons do not have legal force outside of Canada. The United States is not compelled to destroy their copy of the record when a Canadian pardons is granted. This means that if U.S. customs have previously entered a person's name into their own system, they would have that person's criminal record even though the record would no longer appear on CPIC. In such cases, people with a pardon may also wish to consider applying for a travel waiver.
Information from CPIC is retained indefinitely in the U.S. computer system if customs is alerted to the existence of a record for any person attempting to cross the border. If a person has a record and has entered the U.S. in the past without their record being checked, a pardon will be helpful because it will remove the record from CPIC. Since that person's name no longer appears on CPIC, that individual no longer has a criminal record. If Customs asks whether the individual has a criminal record, the individual can say "no." This also applies if a person has received a pardon and has never entered the U.S. The best advice in any situation is to be as honest as possible and remember that Customs can deny or allow a person to enter the U.S. at their discretion. Travellers should also assume that any criminal record information provided to Customs officials will be entered on their police information system for future reference.

FBI database called the National Crime Information Center (NCIC). This same database
is used by Canada to screen visitors coming to Canada

I guess that criteria relates to the questions Alberta included for 2009 applicants.... So they would need to do their homework and go through all the links in the Alberta website and make sure that they have a good understanding of jobs, housing, weather, economy...
Also as someone said in another post it is good/beneficial for us so we are prepared once we get there... Anyway at least if we are already at this stage we shouldn't have to worry about it...... unless we are called for an interview by CIC office...
3. Describe what you have done, or what you plan to do, to search for a job in Alberta (Provide attachment if required):
4. Describe your plans for initial settlement in Alberta. For instance, where do you plan to live and what type of accommodation are you are seeking? (Provide attachment if required):
5. Describe your familiarity with Alberta. For instance, what do you know about its climate, labour market, cost of living, geography, etc.? (Provide attachment if required):

Jay007,
Did CIC tell you the exact reason for returning your documents when they sent the application back?
Below is what is written in the checklist.
"...If you live in a country different from your nationality, include a photocopy of your
visa for the country where you currently live."

Hi Ainpdude - Thanks man. N congrats on getting your check encashed. Sure you shall have your AOR soon. Good luck to others as well.ainpdude said:
I did check the staus of check submitted along with PNP application. Its not been cashed. I plan on writing to CIC asking about PNP application. Hope someone there responds.
Is your FSW check encashed? Thanks again dude.Hi Albertagoverner - How ru. well this is kind of a new information. I believe even those of us who had FSW in place are sending in new PNP app after nomination along with a new set of documents. but as there is no update on PNP application, so fees point is little worrying. I sent FSW with a check and now PNP with a separate check. FSW check is encahsed & I got a provisional AOR. I plan on writing to CIC on PNP app & shall keep everyone updated on response.

thanks for the wishes and wish you too the same !
Yes, my FSW fee was encashed in Sep 2008. I have requested for FSW fee refund
as I am withdrawing FSW... have not heard on that from them on that either.
I thought when you ask to withdraw your PR as FSW applicant it delays your PR based on provincial nominaton application?
sorry if my understanding is not correct....rascojenkins said:
but i dont think there should be any special delays due to withdrawing of FSW...
yes it definitely takes more time for a fresh PNP application to reach its conclusion
as opposed to converting and FSW in to PNP ......
