Sending documents to NVC... police checks..

[Cattledog 0]

We have all our documents ready to send to NVC, but we also need to send the police checks to NVC. But apparently when you get the police check done (here in Australia anyways) they send the results directly to the consulate? So then how do we send the police check with our documents to NVC?

Also, I lived in Canada for 12-13 months, so I need to get a police check from Canada too... Do I need to send that WITH the documents to NVC or can that police check come with me to the consulate interview? It's just a long process to get the results from Canada..

I know most of the civil documents are required to accompany your package to NVC. why not go to or post in the specific countries portal for better guidance. I knw member from Australia had similar chaallanges but cant recall how he solved it.

Hi, I also had to get a Canadian police check and if you do it directly through the royal mounted police it will take at least 4 months to have the check done. They are so so slow, still stuck in the 80's. What I did is had it to done through this company www.fingerscan.ca/ . They mailed me a form, went to the police station, had fingerprints taken then put them in a per payed envelope and had the police mail it to fingerscan. Had the results mailed back to me in 3 weeks.....hope this helps

Thanks, I was looking into fingerscan but couldn't find much about them and wasn't sure if they were 100% legit. They emailed me all the forms on a pdf so I printed them out, but wasn't sure if there'd be another way or not.

So you had the police station mail it to fingerscan? Rather than you sending it yourself? Did you get the regular mail from RCMP? Or the courier way from fingerscan? Which they said would be $98 to 'speed it up'! But I think waiting 3 weeks beats spending an extra $98.

Also, did you have to send the results from the RCMP with your documents to the NVC? Along with the Australian police check? Or do the police checks go with you to the interview, I'm really confused with this part.

Thanks!
