Police Check / medical report

[darumal]

My inland PR application was submitted on the early of April, 09. Yet, some missing info was required to provide in mid of May and then we get our client number.

I arrived Vancouver on 28 December 2008 and I'm from Hong Kong.

I applied the police checks both from Hong Kong & RCMP in February 09. We later found that we needn't to do so until CIC asked me to do it since I'm from HK. Anyway, the HK police had already directly sent to CIC early of April even they haven't my client number.

I also believe my medical report was sent to CIC by my doctor around mid of February or early of March 09. Can CIC locate those check and medical report to my file with missing client number?

For RCMP, I didn't get the check so far and found the check was lost on mail as I just checked with RCMP. They will resend it to me shortly.

Can I send the RCMP check to CIC even they do not ask for? Since I arrived Vancouver in December 08 while I do the RCMP check in February 09, does the check valid? I'm confusing.

Thanks for your help.

First of all - the DMP will have sent your medical results to the Regional Medical Centre in Ottawa and that's where CIC will request them from when they're ready to review them. If they were asking you for medicals, all you have to do is send them a copy of the receipt you got from the DMP proving that you had the exam.

As far as the criminal clearances - you're right, it is confusing. First - the RCMP clearance. Normally CIC says not to get an RCMP clearance unless they tell you to - that's because they will do a name check on you with the RCMP first, and if there is a "hit" they will send you the information you need to get digital prints done for an RCMP check. Ink fingerprint checks for the RCMP just take too long, about 4 months, so CIC can get you what you need to get a clearance in 72 hours. So leave that alone unless you're asked for them. As far as your checks from Hong Kong - I'm a little confused but it sounds like you requested the checks from Hong Kong and they sent them, even though you did not have a Client ID# yet.

So, in my estimation, the only thing you need to concern yourself with right now is whether or not your Hong Kong checks actually made it to CIC. The medical should be taken care of as soon as CIC receives your proof of having done the exam - and the RCMP check is not needed unless they send you paperwork specifically telling you to get one. Tracking down the Hong Kong checks is your concern - I'd start with having your sponsor contact the Call Centre and see if they can determine whether those have been received, or if they're still outstanding. You might have to do them again - if they went to Vegreville without identifying information like your Client ID#, they might never be matched up with your file.
