Hi There, here's the procedure from CIC to get your police certificates

How to obtain police certificates

Step 1. Apply for certificates

It is your responsibility to contact the relevant authorities.

Certificates are usually issued by the police of the country concerned, but in some countries you will have to apply to municipal, provincial, federal or other government authorities. The country's embassy or consulate in Canada may be able to give additional information.

When applying for police certificates, you should include for each person:

A completed Request for Police Certificates/Clearances and Authorization for Release of Information) (PDF, 59 KB) form (see Appendix A). Include photocopies for each applicant.

A set of fingerprints, if required by the authority of the country. Your local police or RCMP may be able to tell you where you can get fingerprints done.

Take the Fingerprint Request Letter (PDF, 56 KB) and your photo identification (passport, travel document, etc.) with you when you go to get fingerprints taken.

You may have to pay a fee.

Your complete mailing address (certificates will be sent directly to you).

Step 2. Submit the certificates

Include the police certificates with your application.

If the police authorities notify you that they will submit the certificates directly to us, include this notice with your application.

All police certificates must be originals; photocopies are not acceptable.

If your certificates are in a language other than English or French, attach an original translation prepared by an accredited translator.

What if I cannot get the police certificates?

If you cannot get police certificates from any of the countries where you have lived, you must provide a written explanation with your application and an original letter from the police authority confirming that they will not issue a certificate.

Those two forms are needed for you to get a fingerprint that u need to get a police clearance in HK, and after you get the fingerprint, you have to send it to HK Police Department together with these forms;

Certificate of No Criminal Conviction Application Form (online form) (doc)
Standard personal data form for Certificate of No Criminal Conviction (local) (online form) (doc)
Standard personal data form for Certificate of No Criminal Conviction (overseas)(online form) (doc)
Fingerprint Consent form for Certificate of No Criminal Conviction

Here's the website to download and print the forms;

We gathered everything and if you looked closely on Certificate of No Criminal Conviction Hong Kong Police (Notes to Overseas Applicants) 4. (c) they wants a letter and the name of the relevant Consulate Immigration Authority. My question is where can I get this letter? Can I submit my application without Police Certificate from Hong Kong Police? I know regarding this (How to obtain a police certificate - Hong Kong)

You submit your application, if accepted, CIC will send you the letter to get your HK PCC.

You have to make your own letter stating that they need to send your police certificate directly to the CIC - Vegreville, and give the exact address of CIC and u need to sign it

I just did my Police Cert last April, everything went good, they sent back my original receipt., thats the only thing u need to include in your PR application. I hope it helps u
