Hi there,
I am Sans, I am applying through an agent and they sent my initial application to NS on May 10, 2010. It my time to wait for the next stage now and would like to know what kind of preparations can be done at this point for the next stage. I am working in Yemen now and I also worked in the UAE. So I am a bit concerned about obtaining my PCC cleared from both these countries. Is there anyone worked or working in any of the countries who took a PCC already or someone with knowlege on this please advise me. I just would like to know how long it took for you and how can we apply for the same.
My next concern is preparing docs in advance. Is it good to prepare all docs for the next stage in advance now. If yes please advise me what kind of docs are required so that I can send it immediately when they ask for. Another thing I heard is the PCC is valid only for three months, so what do you guys think? Its only one month from the date I applied now. Can I expect to be informed by the CHC Delhi to be asked for the docs in the next 3 months.
Advance thanks for your help in this regard.
Best of luck, Sans
Hi,
Hopefully you will get before 3 months from now so its better to start gathering your documents like PCC and other documents work experience letter, university transcripts etc. I have put the information on how you can obtain PCC from UAE and Yemen. Further if you have stayed in any country for 6months or more after turning 18 you will need to obtain PCC from those countries as well.
