    Police Record check

    in Canada

    Posted

    I filed my RCMP Certificate (from Ottawa- with finger prints) with our I-129F Petition. It expired in July. Do you think they will except it with a local police report from the city I've lived in since I was 11 years old? I've been trying to e-mail the Vancouver Consulate to find out and they won't seem to give me a straight answer. I'm worried about getting out NOA2 soon and having to wait at least 5 more months to get a new RCMP Certificate. BTW I do need this one because I have a conviction on my record from 6-7 years ago. Any input would be appreciated. Thank-You.

    False Alarm

    Kristen, I know EXACTLY how you feel right now. I had to tell Ray this morning that I made a huge mistake and thought we were FINALLY approved. Wow... What a gross feeling! Thankfully he was supportive and said "it's ok baby, its on its way"... when I could hear how it hurt him too. Don't worry, We will all get there soon. CSC is on a roll, hopefully this will be our turn. Keep your head up and stay possitive. That's all we can do :)

    Passport Canada

    in Canada

    Posted

    I went in on Monday morning to the passport office, paid an extra $10 to have it ready in two weeks and for pick up. They gave me a receipt saying pick up is on the 11th. If I need it earlier I can call and request it for whatever day I need it on.

    I completely understand the laid back attitude and doing things last minute :D Do they not know how stressful this is? I've made it too easy for my fiance too. He keeps saying "I was willing to hire a lawyer". lol

    I say.... KICK HIS BUTT! Make him get on it and find out whats going n with his passport. Maybe he doesn't realize that it's "for pick-up"? and not mailed out. The passport thing in Canada shouldn't take too long.

    Good luck & best wishes (F)

    I-601 WAIVER

    in Waivers (I-601 and I-212) and Administrative Processes (221g)

    Posted

    I wondering if anyone's been to the Vancouver Consulate and needed a waiver because of a past criminal charge? Or anyone that can offer any advise. I'm trying to prepare for the next steps after NOA2. I'm reading about hardship letters. This whole process has had me in endless amounts of tears. I'm worried about a criminal charge I've had in the past (over 5 years ago and I was given a 6 month conditional sentence served in the community and was given probation). BUT, When I read the Exceptions (II), It says the MAX sentence that could have been given was no more than 1 year. I read up on the laws in Canada and the MAX sentence I actually could have been given is two years. I'm just wondering how picky they are going to be and will I need a waiver. Anyone with any input or been in this situation? I'd really appreciate it.

    Thank-You.

    This is what the law states....

    (2) Criminal and related grounds.-

    (A) Conviction of certain crimes.-

    (i) In general.-Except as provided in clause (ii), any alien convicted of, or who admits having committed, or who admits committing acts which constitute the essential elements of-

    (I) a crime involving moral turpitude (other than a purely political offense or an attempt or conspiracy to commit such a crime), or

    (II) a violation of (or a conspiracy or attempt to violate) any law or regulation of a State, the United States, or a foreign country relating to a controlled substance (as defined in section 102 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 802)), is inadmissible.

    (ii) Exception.-Clause (i)(I) shall not apply to an alien who committed only one crime if-

    (I) the crime was committed when the alien was under 18 years of age, and the crime was committed (and the alien released from any confinement to a prison or correctional institution imposed for the crime) more than 5 years before the date of application for a visa or other documentation and the date of application for admission to the United States, or

    (II) the maximum penalty possible for the crime of which the alien was convicted (or which the alien admits having committed or of which the acts that the alien admits having committed constituted the essential elements) did not exceed imprisonment for one year and, if the alien was convicted of such crime, the alien was not sentenced to a term of imprisonment in excess of 6 months (regardless of the extent to which the sentence was ultimately executed).

    (B) Multiple criminal convictions.-Any alien convicted of 2 or more offenses (other than purely political offenses), regardless of whether the conviction was in a single trial or whether the offenses arose from a single scheme of misconduct and regardless of whether the offenses involved moral turpitude, for which the aggregate sentences to confinement 2/ were 5 years or more is inadmissible.

    I forgot to add it is the only criminal conviction I've ever had and it was a Theft charge.
