From embassy instructions: "Embassy requires a Police clearance report that covers from the age of 16. While filling the application,
you may request for a clearance “from birth”."
If you have lived in the same place since your birth, you can apply for a police clearance certificate from birth. I did not. So I applied for addresses since I turned 16.

Thank you

I have another issue. How did you submit the al collection card with photos and pp copies to the embassy?
Because when i went to handover the a/l collection card as per the instruction sheet none of the embassy security guards know what to do with that and they didnt allow me to go inside. then i contacted colombo embassy and the person who answered the phone said it is not necessary to handover the card before the interview and we can handover that on interview date.

I have handed it over to the security counter as per the instructions. They collected it and asked me to enter my details and sign in a register they maintain at the security counter. They won't allow you to enter the embassy premises without a prior appointment and it's unnecessary for this purpose.

So by the time of the interview the embassy staff were ready with my results sheet and they didn't even ask for photos because the two photos were copies of the same photo I submitted with the card.

Alternatively you could courier the package to the embassy according to the instructions.

But the problem is the security guard told me that they dont accept packages from there and after I contacted the embassy, security said if you want to handover then just keep the package there and leave.i didnt just keep the package with them because they behave like they have no idea about what to do with the package.
Anyway i will go back and try to hand it over.

@Atlan , You mean they dont need 02 more photos at the interview date since we already submitted 02 with the Result sheet card?

I was told that additional photos are not needed because I submitted 2 as you said. Anyway, take 2 just in case because that's in instructions.
