My question is regarding the following instructions in the CIC PDF Instruction Guide:
"For the following countries, police certificates should not be obtained before applying for immigration. You may receive special instructions at a later date about police certificates for these countries.
Afghanistan
French Polynesia
Poland
Thailand
Costa Rica
Honduras
Saudi Arabia
Ukraine
Fiji
Hong Kong
Singapore
United Kingdom
Venezuela"
I was wondering if anyone else has gone through this process as an Inland Applicant. How does CIC proceed on their end? Do they run the check themselves by contacting your embassy? Does this mean that there are delays? Has anyone been contacted by CIC with "special instructions" and what were they?
In my case I could not get the police certificate even if I wanted to because in my country you must do it in person and as I am applying from Canada that is simply not possible. Any information would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
