Police clearance for Spouse for stay in Canada

[Visitor89]

Hello,

I applied for CEC and got my ITA, I had my spouse on my application too. My spouse had a study permit back in 2014 and she was studying in Canada. She has gone back to her country now and I am applying for PR.

Would she need a police clearance from Canada?

as per the following text it says "except Canda", Please assist

You will need to get police certificates for you and each of your family members who are over 18. You must get one from each country or territory (except Canada) where you have lived for six or more months in a row since the age of 18.

Nobody is required to provide a Canadian PCC, it may however be requested after submitting the eAPR if the processing officer requires it.

I also found this link http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=037&top=4

So looks like we will be good, I have started filling my application now after the ITA. Can I submit my PCC now or will I be asked later?
