I'm an American married to a Canadian. I've been living here in Saskatchewan for the last 3 years with my husband and our daughter (who was born here). We finally got around to finalizing our Spousal Permanent Residence Application, but we recently arrived at an impasse with police records. While it my FBI records are accessible, I spent 6.5 months in Peru and I cannot figure out a how to obtain my Peruvian Records. I've contacted the Peruvian Consolate in both Vancouver and Toronto and was told that I basically need someone in Peru to pick the records up for me. However, I have very few remaining contacts in Peru and cannot get in touch with anyone who can pick them up. The Vancouver office explained the procedure and said that they don't serve Saskatchewan and the Toronto office informed me that I would first have to go to the Toronto Office to get my fingerprint impressions and then mail the fingerprints to a friend or acquaintance, who would then go to the police to obtain the records (the Vancouver Office also mentioned I would need a power of attorney to authorize my friend to obtain the records). If they could respond to my inquiry in writing, but they stated the information is written on their website. Outside of the procedure listed, I can't think of any way to obtain my records without going to Peru myself (furthermore traveling seems to be a problem as we're submitting the Resident Application). Can anyone advise us on how to proceed with our application in a timely matter so that we can provide a complete application? Furthermore, my visa expires in June and I will not get any more visa extensions without submitting my PR application. Thank everyone ahead for your useful advise and input.
