you cannot just "not to let Canada know" about what you are doing here.. in order to be eligible for tax exemption, you have to submit "Non-residency status" application. And it's up to Revenue Canada to grant such status to you or not. Otherwise you still have to file your income tax.

Thank you QS. The thing is that i started a company with my friend. It was his company initially so he had his CR. We just changed the business and he applied to my Visa. I was not asked to bring a PPC. I guess it is because it is a one year visa? This is my first Visa. I have not transferred my sponsorship.

I am not planning to let Canada know about what I am doing here because I will taxed the hell out of and then my whole stay here will defeat its own purpose.

Any advice?

thx

PG, PPC is required when you transfer your sponsorship, and when your company wants to apply for your 3 years RP rather than 1 year. Oh, and when your wife who is under your sponsorship wants to obtain a work permit in order to work.

salahkazi1, it was not few months back.. it was 4 and a half years ago.. :)

Linda is no longer in Qatar. You have to register with the Canadians abroad and you will receive the e-mail, when the Canadian Embassy officer from Kuwait coming to Doha next time. That's all you need. Once the officer is here, you will get your PCC on spot, while meeting him, usually at Sheraton hotel.

Hi,

The best person to give you this information is Linda Koych. She is the Chief Canadian Warden responsible for all Canadians in Qatar. She will guide you with the most accurate and up-to-date information. Please send me an e-mail directly and I will give you her phone number.

Cheers,

ckumar, when I had called the embassy they said one of their consulars just signs a form which holds equal to the certificate, issued by the RCMP, in Doha.

Now, I am really confused?

I had to go through this procedure last year because my company screwed up and didn't tell me until after I got here that they could not process my work visa because I needed a police clearance certificate. I contacted the Canadian Embassy in Kuwait. I was told that they don't have an RCMP attache on staff due to staff cuts and so the process would take 6 months. After much deliberation, I returned to Ottawa and got the certificate in 5 minutes (cost $25 CDN). I then had to get it attested through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and couriered to Doha. It then took them another 4 weeks to finally get me my work visa. Should you require additional information, you may want to contact the Chief Canadian Warden in Doha Linda Koych. Please e-mail me directly and I will give you her mobile number.
