Linq NOT EXISTS multiple tables - linq

Question

I want to do a LINQ NOT EXISTS on query MULTIPLE TABLES.
All examples on Google or SO are handling two tables I'm working with three so I'm struggling as a newbie on LINQ on how to reference them correctly.
First I tried this LINQ query
var nocertificates = (
from x in rmdb.t_certificates
from ce in rmdb.t_user_certificates
from u in rmdb.t_users
where u.id == ce.uid && ce.value != x.id
select x).AsEnumerable().Select(x => new ViewModelCheckBox()
{
Value = x.id.ToString(),
Name = x.name,
Checked = false
});
I used the ugly three times from as I'm not that good with creating types for joining.
But that gave wrong result and I realized I had to go for a NOT EXISTS
So I built a new query in T-SQL
This is the SQL query it works!
select distinct * from t_certificates tc
where NOT EXISTS
(
select distinct * from t_users tu, t_user_certificates tuc
WHERE tu.email = 'user#email.com'
and tu.id = tuc.[uid]
and tuc.value = tc.id
)
How would I do that in LINQ?
This is the question, I will award my answer for that!
BUT!
When we are at it... I'm really curious on the answer.. Is it possible to do one LINQ query that return an Ienumerable with both those that EXISTS and NOT EXISTS resulting in an object which will hold DIFFERENT VALUES on the checked property EXISTS -> CHECKED = true NOT EXISTS -> CHECKED = false
This is how I create my object.
.Select(x => new ViewModelCheckBox()
{
Value = x.id.ToString(),
Name = x.name,
Checked = this should be different based on exists or not
});

Answer 1

The LINQ answer should look something like this (untested):
var nocertificates =
from x in rmdb.t_certificates
join tuc in (
from u in rmdb.t_users
join ce in rmdb.t_user_certificates on u.id == ce.uid
select ce.value
) on tuc.value = tc.id into tuc
from y in tuc.DefaultIfEmpty()
where y == null
select x;

Answer 2

This is what I ended up using!
var query = (from tc in rmdb.t_certificates
where !(
from tu in rmdb.t_users
from tuc in rmdb.t_user_certificates
where tu.email == username
&& tu.id == tuc.uid
&& tuc.value == tc.id select tc).AsEnumerable().Any()
select new ViewModelCheckBox()
{ Checked = false,
intconverter = tc.id,
Name = tc.name
});
