Hi everyone,
New to the forum.
Me and my girlfriend are planning on moving to Toronto at the end of summer on the IEC visa for a year initially, but hopefully we will extend beyond that. I've just completed the forms and was about to send off, however I noticed that if you have lived in another country for more than 6 months you need a police certificate.
My girlfriend was an Au Pair in NYC for a year in 2007/2008. The processing times are currently 16-18 weeks for the police certificate.
Is there any way around this or alternative route we can take? Or do we have to wait 4 months for the police certificate, then wait another 2-3 months for the IEC visa? That is if there are any left by then. Is it possible to apply for your visa and police certificate concurrently? Would lying about her length of time spent in the US be an option? I'd imagine not!
Hopefully there is a way to work around this. Any help would be hugely appreciated.
Cheers
C
