Hello @Miss bee
I received ADR for police certificate from the Netherlands where i did my MSc. I was given 30 days by IRCC to submit it. Unfortunately it takes 4 weeks to get the certificate and it can only be mailed to me adding adding time before i can receive it. I have already submitted the application for the police certificate. What steps can I take with IRCC? Will they refuse my application?

IRCC can police certificates from countries where applicants have studied or worked, and some countries (like the Netherlands) have slow processing times.
Here’s how you can handle it so your application isn’t refused

1. Don’t wait — send an explanation before the deadline
Log in to your IRCC account and upload a Letter of Explanation (LOE) in place of the police certificate before the 30-day deadline.

• In your LOE, clearly state:
  • The date you received IRCC’s Additional Document Request (ADR).
  • The date you applied for the Dutch police certificate.
  • The official processing time provided by the Dutch authorities.
  • That the certificate will be mailed to you, which adds extra time.
  • That you will submit it to IRCC as soon as you receive it.
• 
  
• Attach proof that you have already applied for the certificate — this could be:
  • A receipt or payment confirmation.
  • A confirmation email from the Dutch authorities.
  • A screenshot of your application submission.

2. IRCC’s usual approach
IRCC will typically not refuse your application if you can prove you applied for the police certificate within their deadline and it’s outside your control to receive it sooner.

• They may either give you an extension or keep your file open until you submit the missing document

3. After you receive the certificate
Scan it and upload it to IRCC immediately via the webform or in the document upload section (if they reopen it).

• Include your application number and a short message referencing your previous LOE.

4. Why this works
IRCC’s own instructions say that if a police certificate is delayed due to factors outside your control and you provide proof you’ve applied for it, they won’t refuse you for non-compliance — they just need to see that you acted promptly and honestly.

@Miss bee Balance confirmation from the bank is enough for the support of the current proof of settlement funds as an ADR? Or do I need to attach last 6 months bank statement?

Hello @Miss bee

I've just received my P1 email. Should I just reply to the email with the details they've requested for each of the family members and then I'll get access to the PR portal for future communication?

Thanks

Hello @Miss bee

I've just received my P1 email. Should I just reply to the email with the details they've requested for each of the family members and then I'll get access to the PR portal for future communication?

Thanks

For P1, you should reply on one single message from the main applicant's email with the details of the applicant and all the dependents included in the application. In the email address question, put the same email for everybody. Something like:

Applicant:
Applicant's name
Applicant's physical characteristics
Applicant's phone number
Applicant's email

Dependent 1:
Dependent's name
Dependent's physical characteristics
Dependent's phone number
Main applicant's email

Dependent 2:
Dependent's name
Dependent's physical characteristics
Dependent's phone number
Main applicant's email

And so on.

You'll get access to the PR portal on P2, you don't need to worry about that right now.

Yes, that’s typically the right move . If the P1 email is requesting specific details for each family member—like passport numbers, dates of birth, or other identification info—then replying directly with that information is usually the next step. Once they receive and verify your response, they’ll often grant you access to the PR portal, which becomes your main hub for tracking progress, uploading documents, and receiving updates.

@Miss bee Balance confirmation from the bank is enough for the support of the current proof of settlement funds as an ADR? Or do I need to attach last 6 months bank statement?

It depends on what exactly is being asked for in the ADR (Additional Document Request) and the specific immigration or visa program you’re applying to

• If the ADR specifically asks for a “proof of settlement funds” — most immigration authorities (like IRCC for Canada) require more than just a one-time balance confirmation. They typically want to see bank statements for the past 6 months to prove the funds are genuinely yours, have been held over time, and are not just temporarily borrowed to pass the requirement.
• If the ADR says “current balance confirmation” — then a letter from the bank stating your balance, account details, and date may suffice. But often, they still prefer it accompanied by a transaction history.
• Balance confirmation letters alone can be seen as insufficient because they don’t show the source or stability of funds — and in some cases, the visa officer may reject it for lack of proof of ownership over time.

In most real cases, the safest approach is:
Provide both the official balance confirmation letter and the last 6 months of bank statements. This removes any doubt and prevents a second request that could delay your application.

No way to fast-track.

The most recent one I have is November 2024: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...P_4dsJTt-Py0/edit?gid=327230977#gid=327230977

I'm sure there must be sheets for 2025 but I don't have the links.
