Hi,

We just got our i130 approval so now my husband needs to get his police certificates. Where is the best place to go in Montreal, what does he need to bring, and what should he be asking for? Will he need fingerprints too? Any info would be great! Thanks in advance!

If you do a search on VJ you will find the places that do the police background check! If he has EVER had a criminal record, then YES to fingerprinting, otherwise no

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Hi, we went to the local police station in Longeueil and they messed up the translation and got us RFE'd!

I recommend this place:

The place is kind of sketchy but NVC accepted it fine. The guy is pretty nice but he was busy when we got our police record from him. Just call ahead to make sure you have everything and what time works best for him and you should be fine. :)

Also, Congrats! smile.png

Hi, Personaly I went there :

Agence Numéro 1 du Pardon Inc.
205, Viger West, suite 202
Montréal (Québec) H2Z 1G2
514-868-9110 / 877-868-9110

Even if dont have a criminal record, I choose the one with fingerprint. I just dont take chance! Anyway the price is not a big difference. I think it's something like 20$.

The man was very kind. Dont forget to ask a receipt so you can use this for your next taxes.
