You do realize you're asking someone who posted that news in 2009, yeah?

Yeah. But maybe he's still hanging around cause if his job is not DEO related, his personal recruiting experience is irrelevant in this case.

every landed immigrant has provided a police record to the canadian embassy where he/she applied for an permanent residence visa.
simply said, you cannot be a landed immigrant without a clean police record from every country where you lived more than 6 months. or, to ask someone a police record again, when anyone in the federal business (army included) is aware of this issue, seems more like buying time.
You know I said the same in my CFRC but they told me that :"You gave this sertificate to Immigration Department.But we are DND."
I said :OK.No problems" and after that I have given to CFRC fresh Certificat.It took 3 weeks only.
P.S. I am in Canada less thn 10 years.

See, that's why we advocate reading the forums so much. Within a few minutes I was able to find out that the poster is indeed a her and that she's starting a BMOQ, which would tell me that she's gone the officer route. I don't know if it's DEO, you could always send a PM rather than sitting and waiting for a reply.

It was painless to do, really.

Edited to reflect purge of BS from the thread.

Nothing is good enough for the troops, so nothing is what they are going to get.

If you do not get out and vote, shut up.

Thank you Scott, I'll remember next time. Not too relevant though cause women are encouraged to join the army forces, they only count for ~15%, so far (from what I read).  I want to hear from a naturalized canadian male (not coming from a NATO country) with less than 10 years canadian residence and who applied for DEO. Maybe you can help.

What's wrong with hearing from a naturalized Canadian* female who applied for DEO?  The application process is the same, regardless of gender.

I'll end the speculation immediately: I can't help at all. Born and raised in Canadaland. I'll offer up that while there are a few guys from your specific demographic there are not huge numbers. So be patient and you'll get someone to answer you soon.

What I wanted to do was point out to you that the post had been made some time ago and thus the person may or may not respond to you, it happens from time to time here that people stop reading certain threads, even if they responded before.

Edit: I'll echo what Moe said, what does gender have to do with it? Now I've got a Tina Turner song pounding through my head....

During Security Check my local CFRC asked me to bring Police Certificate from my country of origin.I did it in 3 weeks.
Again.
Every case is different .Here I am sharing my personal experience.
My security check was about 14 months.
During this time I was asked about:
1.Bringing police certificate from my country of origin
2.Filling form 330-60
3.Fingerprints
4.Bringing personal picture (pasport picture)
5.Interview with CSIS agent .

Sure.
Citizenship Certificate is document number one when I was starting application process.
Without Citizenship Certificate it is not possible to apply even.

I'm 16 and from non NATO country. I came to Canada when I was 5, I've been here for almost 12 years now, I have all papers I need. But will I have to go through all security clearance interview, etc. if I want to join at 17 ? ( I don't know if being minor changes something )

Thank you !

P.S: I did left Canada for a month a 3 or 4 times, so I wasn't in Canada for 10 years. If it helps.

Please read the topics on joining the CF.  You will find lots of information on what the criteria are to join.  You will find topics that cover BackCheck, Medicals, Physical Fitness, CFAT, and many other FAQs that will answer your questions.  You will have to fill out the exact same forms as anyone else who wants to apply, go through all the same interviews and tests, and then wait until they call.
