Hi all - new member to GOC.

I'd appreciate anyone's feedback on using international references for my application. I recently completed my CFSC and CRFSC and am preparing my application to send off. I had previously read that I must know the selected references for 1 year, however I see in fact the requirement is 3 years or more. This is not possible for me, as I only moved to Canada just over two years ago and do not know any suitable Canadian references for three years or more.


Is it possible to use two references from outside Canada, such as my home country (Ireland) by posting the physical application to them and having them post it back to me? If so, has anyone had experience with timezone difficulties between RCMP's phone call to the reference for verification?


Thanks all.
