Its been more than 2 weeks since my results were mailed to Indian address. I know that delivery to India can take time. So I am giving it say another week. Now if the postal service loses my package, can i ask FBI for a copy of the results to be shipped to me (maybe US address this time) or do I have to go through the entire application process again? My ITA will expire in 2 weeks. So if i ask for an extension, I might get another 60 days. I dont think it is possible to do the entire PCC application process again in 2 months.
It usually takes about 4 weeks for your report to get delivered in India. FBI has a time frame (if I remember correctly, it is 6 weeks) for expected delivery of reports to international destinations. If you do not get your report after the expected delivery time frame, you can ask them to send you a new report. But you will have to wait for at least 4 weeks.Tatya_Vinchu said:
Oh ok. I read on the immi tracker that some people from France, Lebanon got their results delivered in less than 2 weeks. Also someone from India got his result in just 10 days. So I was a bit hopeful. But looks like I will have to file my application without it. I can't afford to wait 2 more weeks.metal said:
Tatya_Vinchu, based on your name you appear to be from Maharashtra? It would be helpful to know when you receive your results as mine will be delivered to Pune.Tatya_Vinchu said:
The delivery time is dependent on the postal department of the country. FBI send the documents through USPS First Class mail which in US has at least some priority. When it comes to India post, it becomes a regular mail. At this point, it is up to the postal department how they treat your mail. They could release it in a few days or week depending on the work load. They are unpredictable.Tatya_Vinchu said:
This is not to scare you but there have been instances where I did not receive a lot of mails from USA. But there have been times where it got delivered within 2 weeks.
Yes you are right. I had similar experiences when receiving mails from US. I will wait for another week.Maverick28 said:
Hello all,
I enclose below the response from the FBI as provided a couple of minutes ago. They are currently opening packets received on 16 February 2017.
"The current processing time for an FBI Background Check is taking 8-10 weeks to complete from the date the request was received. It can take 7+ weeks for a request to clear our security process, so we are not able to see the request in our system until then.
At this time we are opening mail we received on approximately 02/16/2017, we are unable to verify the delivery of a package until it is open. If you submitted your request by courier (Fed Ex, UPS, or USPS), please view their web site to verify delivery.
Unfortunately, no requests can be expedited at this time due to the amount of work. All responses are mailed through the US Postal Service First Class Mail please allow standard mailing time (three weeks in the US and four weeks outside the US) to receive the response. There is no tracking number with the US Postal Service First Class Mail. Responses cannot be emailed.
Please be sure to supply your full name and date of birth when requesting a status update."

Thanks for the update. Not great news but allows all of us waiting to plan an LOE
and providing the Fed Ex delivery slips to CIC as looks like processing will be salted.
Can you advise when you wrote this email and which email address you sent it to?
I've written asking to change mailing address but never heard back and it's almost
2 weeks.
Thanks again.
