This is Jae to Jae, do you hear me out there

It has been over two weeks (two weeks last Thursday) since we handed in our criminal record check request form to the Vancouver police. The clerk told us it would take approximately two weeks. Now we are anxiously waiting for our forms to arrive in the mail as positions are filling up fast in Korea. On the forum for applicants, Eric, our coordinator, had posted that almost all metropolitan positions had been filled, and that it was expected to be completely filled by the end of this week.

I never realized how difficult it was to obtain a criminal record check. Vancouver is a separate detachment from the RCMP, which made our application process even more difficult. Vancouver has slightly different requirements from the RCMP and a criminal record check letter of request on company letterhead from the company requiring the check is needed in addition to two pieces of identification and the consent form. All the information needed can be found here. I believe that the RCMP has a slightly different process although I am not sure, since I was residing in Vancouver, I had to apply through the Vancouver Police Department.
