Ok, so I'm just beginning my journey, and I was wondering, about the police letter from all places lived since age 16. Its basically a criminal record check right? I just go to the RCMP, tell them I need a criminal record check and that's it?

But here's my other catch. I lived in NYC on a J-1 visa for a couple years (before I even knew my fiance, I met him while I was there). How do I get a criminal record check for the US? Can my fiance go ask for me? Or do I have to make a trip down there? and if I do, who do I ask? NY state police?

thanks in advance for your help.

A police check from the U.S. is not necessary. It will say that on packet 3 when you receive it from the consulate down the road. :)

Exact wording from mine (their emphasis):

It is NOT necessary to obtain police certificates from the United States.
