Korean Job Discussion Forums

So I went into the local RCMP station, filled out a form, including asking for a VSS, and had a piece of paper (no charge) ten minutes later. Will this do?

Is the "A name search based on the above information has not disclosed a sexual offence etc" the Vulnerable Sector Bit? Or is it the "Protected A" security designation?

It says in caps (twice) NAME CHECK ONLY - NOT SUPPORTED BY FINGERPRINTS. Problem?

Sorry for an often repeated type of question, but I've spent about an hour searching through old threads and can't find a definitive answer. Can I just get this thing notarized and send it off to the Korean Consulate?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

I didn't think mine had enough information, either. I asked questions here, but didn't get any response.

So, I sent mine to the Consulate in Montreal for notarization and got it back. I didn't receive any notice that it isn't good enough, and I'm assuming the big stamp on the back written in Korean means it's notarized....

I know... it seems too easy, but, I guess that's all they want.

Thanks for the info!

For safety's sake, I did it both the quick RCMP detachment way and the long mail-to-Ottawa-with-fingerprints way and immigration accepted the quick way and I had my work visa an entire month before the Ottawa route CRC came in the mail!

I got mine at a local Ontario police station and it was one piece of paper reporting that I had no record. Immigration accepted it no problem.

Good good. That's a weight off my mind. The thing just looks so, chintzy, ya know? Whatever works....

From what I understand, the fingerprint check is only necessary if somebody with the same name as you comes up with a record (even though other fields like birthdate and address, etc, are different). I could be mistaken.

My CRC was the same way, though. Just a boring sheet of paper.
