I did my medical on May 6th and fingerprint last week. However, I should receive my police certificate until next week. I will send all the requested documents after I get the police certificate next week.

Hopefully, they can finish our cases shortly.
I was asked to scan all requested docs(including proof of medical examination) except police certificate and email them. I have emailed requested docs to them on Tuesday. I did my digital figure prints yesterday and will have the result ready by next Wednesday. Hopefully within next few months we all will be out of this forum:).

Hey guys,

What is this finger-print about? Why have you done finger-prints? Also, what forms they asked you to update? For me, they asked all of the forms, Generic, Schedule 1 3 and Additional Family.

Thanks. I only sent police certificate of my home country and they did not ask for an update. They did not asked for the police certificate of Canada. For applicants inside the Canada, CIC used to do the RCMP check by itself and not form applicant. Am I wrong?

Ottawa only asked me to take Medical exam and pay rprf. No forms, fingerprinting, nothing else.

Did they explicitly request you guys to do fingerprinting, fill forms, get police clearance etc? Do any of you live Canada?

If you look at my prev posts in this thread, I was asked to submit updated PCC (I submitted FBI one for US during my prev stay during my app in 2010). But since I left Canada and started again living in US, I was asked to get a US state (not FBI) PCC. I did my Finger printing from State Bureau itself.

I have been living in Canada. Well it totally depends on specific case officer to ask about different forms or other docs. My case officer asked me to send scanned attachment of IMM008 & schedule A, Notice of assessment for 2009-2010 & 2011, available funds, passport bio page and MR.



Police Certificates:

Please be advised that Police Certificates must be submitted as ORIGINAL documents, in their original PAPER format. We do not accept scanned copies. This document must be sent via postal or courier service to our office at the following address:

Attention: Officer .......

Case Processing Pilot - Ottawa

219 Laurier Avenue West

7th Floor, Section B

Ottawa, Ontario K1A 1L1



All requested documents/information must be accompanied by the outgoing correspondence we have sent to you (i.e. this e-mail or a printed copy of this letter).

Hi Everyone!!!

I'm a june 2010 Buffalo applicant and already submitted medicals (October 2010) and RPRF (February 22nd) last month. I send them an email asking about my status and they said that my application is in "progress" and they will let me know if something else is needed.

Knowing that I'm at the final stage of this LONG process the waiting is even more painful. Thats why I want to know if someone else has the a similar timeline as me and if you had a different answer from ottawa office, just to have a little bit of hope.

Thanks a lot!!

Did you receive MR on Oct 2010 or 2012? IMO your timelines are normal. Some of us who applied in Mar, Apr '10 timeframe just got MR.

Hi greatlake,

They do explicitly ask the orignial police certificate from RCMP, the forms, RPRF and T4 of last year. I am living in Canada now.

Where are you living now? outside Canada?
