Do I need a police certificate for immigration purposes? But first, what is a police certificate? Well, it is a document that proves that you don’t have a criminal record. Generally speaking, this document is necessary to apply for any Immigration and citizenship program candidate.
Furthermore, this so called document also helps Immigration and citizenship Canada to know if for any reason you are not allowed to enter Canada.
In order to get one, you have to contact the police or government of your country/territory of birth. Not only are police certificates different in every country and region but also they go by different names.
For instance, these certificates go by different names for example a police clearance certificate, good conduct certificate, judicial record extracts, amongst other names. Keep in mind, if your police certificate is neither English nor French, you must send it along with a certified translation.
