Hi everyone. I studied in Turkey and left after my graduation in 2019 and never went back. I got a police certificate done from a Turkish Embassy in 2020 at my country of citizenship.
The Turkish Police certificate doesnt have an expiry date. I got it after I left Turkey and never went back. Would IRCC accept it for my PR application even tho it was done in 2020. It clearly says in their website that " For any other country, the police certificate must be issued after the last time you stayed there for 6 months in a row or longer.
Some countries put expiry dates on their police certificates. If you have a police certificate that expired, include it. We’ll accept it if:
  • it was issued after the last time you stayed there for 6 months in a row or longer
  • it is not for the country where you currently live"
I would love your thoughts and experience on similar case.
