For a family class spousal you include the Criminal Records checks with the application. There are only a couple of countries where you require a visa office to send you a letter. Hong Kong, Singapore come to mind. Check http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/index.asp to determine how to obtain them.

Yes that is the record check for that specific country, i meant if you lived in canada for at least 6 months and they require one from canada, then you have to wait for them to request it

Yes I understand i need a visa office to send me a letter. My problem is that I dont know where can I obtain the visa letter before submitting the application. Or do I have to wait for them to send it to me after submitting. I want to get thru this asap and the doubled time lines just make things worse :(

My husband is Thai so we might be applying through Singapore. We were able to get his Police Clearance from Bangkok without a letter issued from a visa office because we are going to send it in with the entire application shortly. Does that mean we have to do it again at a later date with a 'letter' from Singapore visa office?

This is Denoose' wife . May I ask if the Police Clearance came from the Police Clearance Services Center in Bangkok ? and was it in English ? if not then there is need to have the police clearance translate into English .

Hi the Police Clearance Report just arrived from Bangkok in English today. This is the second time that we have applied for one because the 3 month expiry date had passed on the first one. Again, I want to state that my husband got the Police Clearance without a request letter for one from Singapore. He simply applied for one stating he needed it for PR for Canada.
The Report States:
SPECIAL BRANCH
ROYAL THAI POLICE
BANGKOK, THAILAND
OCTOBER 29,2010
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
FOR THE CANADIAN EMBASSY ONLY
THIS IS TO CERTIFY THAT MR. XXXX OF THAI NATIONALITy PASSPORT XXXXX IS A PERSON WITH NO BEHAVIOR ENDANGERING THE PEACE AND ORDER OR THE SECURITY OF THE STATE
POLICE LIEUTENANT XXXX
My husband's picture and file number xxxxx
It is stamped with an official red stamp
Is this going to be satisfactory for CIC or is he going to have to get another police clearance at a later date upon specific request from the Visa processing office?

I think that will satisfy the Visa office where you are applying for . I have just sent my application for police clearance certificate yesterday and hopefully I can receive a reply from the Police center in Bangkok this month.
