Actually, another 5 points for adaptability.

yes. you are right. and with new regulation extra 5 points for phd so it will be 10 points.
However, it is hard to find an employment with these conditions.

Sure!
 
Thanks!

But, I called them today and asked them where I should send those documents. The guy told me that since I haven't received any email stating my files are already forwarded to the visa processing center, I should send them to Sydney, NS - the same address where I sent my application.

I just got a document request: certified RCMP criminal record check based on fingerprints. I just replied to their POF request yesterday by the way.

Can any applicant who did that before give me more info about it:

How long does it take ?
How much ?

First time I applied was in Sep. 2012. I got my application returned at that time (CAP reached), however I used many of the returned documents in the new application I submitted in Dec. 2012 including the English test report, I did not have that hole in the papers, but I don't think it matters. Anyways, just make sure that they have not changed or updated any of the application forms. I would also advice u to update any documents that could be easily updated as well as to revise and update information in your application. I would also advice u to use a cover letter with your application that clarifies any issue with your documents such as not being very up-to-date. Good luck :)

My application is returned. I plan to submit it again, with some additional documents. The old documents returned to me all have a small hole at the top left corner. What does that mean? Can I reuse these old documents with a hole? Well, it takes time to get new copies of documents like ielts report and birth certification.

Hi guys .. can you share time it took, from the day of application reached at CIO, to returned your package??

You can't do it everywhere, only a few numbers of police stations offer it; depending on the location, it can be from 50 to 80$. Several private companies do it as well.

Thanks. I got to know that the police station in my city does not offer this service for immigration purposes. I just got an appointment with some company to do it for me tomorrow. It costs $56 and they told me it takes around a week if I don't have a criminal record.

Do u have an idea about why does CIC ask some applicants to do it ?
 
Hi everyone,

I think I will send an updated reference letter next week.
I just wanted to know to what email address I should send it, and if there are any formal requirements when writing the email (like, what should I write?).
Sorry if this question has already been answered in the forum.

I actually think these are new regulations and that everyone will have to do it. Not 100% sure though...

You said before that you got your PER, this means your application will be forwarded to a visa office for further processing. You'll not get any further communication stating that your application has been sent already.
I'd say that your application has been sent already as you got your PER a month ago.

It seems you are very close to get your MR.
They ask for RCMP if you have a common or similar name with a hardcore criminal, this is what I found from the previous posts of other applicants.
Good Luck!
