Canadawhich police certifate to use?
Hi!
Long time lurker, first time poster.
I thought I should ask in this thread than create a new one.

My American Fiancee and I received our NOA2 on Dec 21, so Ive been figuring out what information I need before the package 3 arrives.
Where the police check/certificate is concerned, I lived in BC for most of my life, but the last 10 have been in Ontario, should I just be able to go to my local Peel Regional police for the document I need? Or do I have to sign up for that 120 day wait for the RCMP search? Being this far along and seeing that it might take 4 months JUST for the police check with RCMP sort of felt like a punch to the stomach :(

CanadaQuestions for Packet 3

For part II, You DO need to fill it in BUT you cannot sign it -- it will be signed at the interview.
I'm assuming you're doing a CR1 visa application? ARe you doing Electronic processing or regular? If Regular you have to send in all original documents except for your passport which you will bring to your interview.
But they need your original long form BC, marriage certificate, police record and such... make two copies of everything to keep...

hope this helps... anyone chime to add anything else...



Oh sorry, I forgot to specify its a K1 Fiancee visa

The coversheet does say not to send the original documents, but send the checklist indicating that you have obtained the documents listed


I dont suppose anyone would happen to know where I can track down my vaccination records, I grew up and lived in B.C. until about 10 years ago when I moved to Ontario. I just havnt had a lot of success with B.C. so far.

CanadaQuestions for Packet 3
Hey All,

Just got my packet 3 and Im working on it now.

The instructions on the coversheet say to complete and return the forms listed: DS230, Part I

But there are 2 pages Part I and 2 pages Part II, and on Part II it says:

"This form (DS-230 Part II), together with Form DS-230 Part I, constitutes the complete Application for Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration."

But I definitely do not need to fill out Part II?

Also the packet says on the attached checklist to indicate that I have obtained the listed documents, It doesn't say to send the checklist items though, I assume those are for the interview later then?
I had to order the long version of my birth certificate, and renew my passport since it would expire in 2 weeks anyhow, both should arrive in a couple of weeks, would It be ok if I checked it now and sent the checklist back in before those items arrive in the mail to me?

Oh, Also, I should wait until my interview date is issued before trying to get my medical exam, correct?

thanks for the help!

CanadaDS-160 online form
Ohh, yea I'll try and find a white wall and take a pic, since I live alone that could be an interesting use of camera placement and timing :D

Otherwise, i have an extra anyhow when I got the US sized ones earlier, so in a pinch, that will do.

Im just fairly neurotic about wanting to be sure Im doing it all right, and no mistakes, then I second guess myself and think I could be messing the whole thing up with one comma in the wrong place or something. Makes me crazy, the wait is long enough without my clumsiness adding anything to it haha :)

Thanks so much Hugglebuggles and Kimbear!

Hi Adriana,
if your timeline is right you must already be in the US??? Is that right? Congrats again. SO happy for you.
I have my medical scheduled for tomorrow, thanks to you! I couldn't get into Leipzig, but i immediately got an appointment in Berlin. So it is all looking good now!
Hope you have a great time at home! Keep me updated how things are going!

Yuppieeeee, I was so sure that is coming today, the most beautiful bell ring: the post man. :dance: :dance: I got the passport and the brown envelope right here. I noticed that they put a canceled stamp on the 10 year US tourist visa I had on my passport and the mysterious brown envelope has a corner cut off I guess for the papers to fit in there.
Now, I am ready to go to my husband! :dance: :dance: :dance:
