Hi I am an Australian citizen but my k1 interview will be in Montreal as living in Canada the past few years. For my Australian police cert is the full disclosure enough from the Australian Federal police? or are finger prints required. I know for my Canadian one I had to get full check and fingerprints. I already received my the Australian Federal police cert with full disclosure a few weeks ago.

Toronto85 - I don't think you will have an issue. But there has been some confusion in the past over name search vs. fingerprint search, and AFP vs. state-sponsored searches - just to let you know.

Australia now has a centralized Federal Police Certificate, which you have as you are not currently a resident. But we ran into issues (because my spouse is Australian) because the current rulebook used by the adjudicators says that you must have a Police Certificate from each state in which you have lived. The rules have not been updated to reflect that this certificate is now Australia-wide. So we had an issue because they expected a certificate from both QLD and Victoria. It was a real pain, as we had to explain why we couldn't get a Victoria certificate.

But since you are in Toronto - I'm betting that you will be fine. Good luck!
