I’m a March 2023 applicant, and my application has been under comprehensive security screening since July 2024. I previously lived in Saudi Arabia and already have a Saudi police clearance certificate. However, I did not submit it earlier because IRCC never requested it.





Would it be helpful if I submit the Saudi police clearance certificate now, even though it was not requested? Could it potentially help move the security screening process forward?
did you not see the option to upload the police certificate? also, you’re supposed to submit a PCC from any country where you lived for more than 6 months. you should have uploaded it. I hope you at least mentioned in your application that you lived in Saudi Arabia.

yes, i think you should submit it now through the IRCC webform. since you lived in Saudi Arabia for more than 6 months, the PCC is usually required anyway. It may help avoid delays later if the officer asks for it.
