These are all come under background check- Security, criminality and even the eligibility, they will do a research on the company, IELTS and lots

Do they check your credit reports ?

No

Thanks
 
honeysingh is right! background checks will include verification (also known as vetting) of all the information you submitted.....criminality, security, testing, employment and etc. this is standard procedure, except for the more complex checks - criminal and terrorism ties - that are handled by CSIS (security check).

as for your credit......no, they will not be checking that. there are strict privacy laws which prevent government agencies from accessing information, unless authorized. i was speaking with CRA the other day, and was told that even they will not disclose information to CIC, unless the person authorizes it directly. this is why you must send the T4 and NOA yourself. in any case, dont worry about your credit!

the only time financial matters become relevant is when there are criminal charges/proceedings involved.
 
That was really great info. Thanks for the question and the responses
 
Hi

Question for anyone out there, has anyone submitted their application without the police certificates? If yes did you get an AOR only after you submitted the police certificates? I applied in June and still waiting for police certificates from my country. Any similar experiences out there?

cheers

I did and got AOR too. It is clearly stated in the doc checklist that PCC can be submitted at a later stage as well.

Agreed! Moreover, I did not submit other required documents as well, and still received an AOR. I provided those documents later on.....when my file was transferred to CPP-O. No problem there. Just make sure to include an explanation letter, if the document you are not including is required in the checklist. Otherwise, dont worry.
