Hi,
I recently got the police certificate from Lahore with a QR code on top right of the page. The link in the QR code doesn't work whereas it is mentioned on the certificate that the authenticity of the certificate can be verified through QR code. I'm afraid this might cause an issue if submitted to IRCC as the link doesn't work. Has anyone already submitted the PCC with the QR code and had their PR application processed by IRCC and what was the outcome? It's difficult to talk to our police department about these things as they are not well informed about such issues. Can anyone else kindly share their experience?

No no relax. Our qr code didnt work either. This is why pakistani applicants spend longer in BG & Security screening because our PCCs are crap
Hi everyone, count me in. Pakistani National working in UAE, received the ITA for FSW in May 2017 and subsequently submitted all required documents in August 2017 through a registered attorney (with in the stipulated 3 months’ time).
As of today, almost 11 months have passed and my case has been referred for "secondary security checks". I would like to know what this is and in what circumstances cases are referred for this. I would also like to know if anyone has faced the same situation and how much more time it will take for my case to be cleared.My attorney has requested for the GCMS notes already but we are yet to receive them. Dont know how useful these will be to understand the situation of my case.
If there is a whatsapp/ telegram group to discuss such matters please do let me know so that i can join.
Look forward to suggestions/ feedback.
Regards

Once your application is in Security Screening, it can take anywhere from 6 months to 24 months for your case to be finalized. Nothing much can be done except for waiting patiently. I would like to know how you found out about SS when you requested for GCMS just now?
Hi, thanks for the quick response.
I am based in UAE for 10+ years, travel history includes USA (on visit visa, twice), UK (on visit visa, twice), Turkey (on visit visa, once), KSA (on Umra visa, twice), Oman (on visit visa, three times). Dont know if this is considered a lot or not. All travel on valid visit visas and no over stay at all.
PCCs are from Lahore (Pak) and UAE.
One more question. Our medical (myself and family) was done on 8th July 2017 and i have heard that the results are valid for a period of 1 year. Are we required to conduct the medical exam upon expiry directly or should we wait for the authorities to instruct us to do the same.
Doesn't sound like a lot of travel history to me. People here had filled over 50 travel slots & still received their PPRs in 60 days. Don't know what causes them to drop applicants into security screening.
As for your medical, please sit tight. They might extend your medicals for a few more months OR request you for fresh medicals. They will contact you either way.
Thanks for the reply.
Can you please also clarify about Saudi PCC, did you submit upfront or after receiving the letter from IRCC? On their website it's mentioned that we have to wait for their letter to submit Saudi PCC but in my case I got the letter from Pakistan Embassy to issue the PCC. On my PCC the purpose of request is mentioned as Police clearance [Passport#] but for my wife it's simply immigration. There is no mention of her passport number anywhere. Will this work? Also, the PCC itself is black and white print with blue stamps, I'm worried as there have been instances in the past where the application was rejected only because the PCC was scanned as black & white. What I have seen in different forums is that IRCC is very strict about PCCs and any small mistake will result in rejection of the application so just have to be extra cautious.
We went back and ask them to write our passport numbers on it & sytamp it again. Then translated it with both, iqama and passport numbers showing. The new PCC Format is totally digitized and they are not ready to make any amendments to it. So if they don’t acquiesce to your request, don’t stress too much about it. Theres also no period of stay dates either - which was another cause of concern for us. Have already requested for GCMS notes to put our minds to ease, but I am over 60 days post AOR so we should be good I guess.

Hello, I got a similar letter from my bank where the account maintenance certificate (signed and stamped) and six months stamped statement was issued by the bank but the wordings about 'account is free of any debt' are not mentioned since this is not part of bank's standard format.
May I ask you what did you finally submit to CIC ? Did you managed another letter or simply explained CIC about this in an LOE ?
I have a few questions if anyone can help I would appreciate:-
Pakistan PCC: I am currently in Saudi Arabia but would be going to pakistan for good and lodging my EE application post ITA from Rawalpindi. Now on my nic my permanent address is mentioned Thana - place near peshawar and I stayed there for a while around dec 2016 to march 2017. But I did not spend more than 3 months there. Now do I need to get PCC from both Rawalpindi as well as my anscestral home? Will I have to physically go there to obtain the PCC? I am not sure I even need a PCC from pakistan as i have never stayed there 6 months continuously... In contrast, is it just possible for me to update my current and permanent address as rawalpindi address in my nic and then apply for pakistani PCC? Will that PCC be considered valid?
Gift Deed: Iam going to open a new bank account in pakistan so my brother can transfer me the gift deed now is there any specific bank i should use? What do you guys recommend? Another thing is that my brother is in UAE and he will be transferring the funds from there to my pakistani bank account. Is it okay if both parties are not present in the same country while initiating the gift deed? How can I go about this matter? Please help.

Hi,
I am currently filling my online application form for Express Entry.
I am completing the Study portion of the online form and have a query regarding what education details need to be listed.
I have got my degree evaluated from WES and have filled the details for my degree in the form.
My question is, do I need to add details of my secondary education in the online form as well?
In that case, should I get my secondary education (in this case A-Levels) evaluated from WES as well?
What if i just upload my degree details and submit my application?
A swift response will be appreciated.
