Hey Wacky1.nash,
I was able to get in touch with them after spending an entire day trying to continuously keep calling them. The representative said that they have not opened my package yet and MAY open it on this Friday or next Monday. Once they open the package then they will mail a confirmation letter. So I am assuming that no mail received = package not opened yet. I will post here once I receive any mails for BLS. Could i request you to please keep me posted in case there are any changes or updates at your end. Thanks
I got an email around 5:30pm from BLS on March 3rd that my application is pending due to incomplete application form. I did not fill in my father’s name (the form clearly says that it is mandatory to only fill one of the three - mother, father, guardian). Since I was providing my mom’s address proof and didn’t want to cause confusion, I only put in my mother’s name. For some reason BLS deemed this to be incomplete.
So they sent me an email with a link (that didn’t work) to upload the documents, and a password (that didn’t work) to log in to the portal. There was a sentence in the email, "to contact us, click here" and that link didn’t work. Anyway, I fenangled through and got through into the portal after an hour of trying and then recreated and uploaded a fresh application.
Today after several hours on the phone, I managed to get through to them. They told me my application is incomplete. I told them I uploaded it. Then they asked me did I reply to the email to tell them I uploaded The document. I said no, because there was no instruction to do so. The agent said I need to reply to the email. I told him I received two emails from two different addresses, which one should I send the reply to. He mentioned it should be the one from Brampton.p@bls etc... neither of the two emails I received was from that email address.....

Absolute clowns! Literally every other word they utter is just incorrect....even the message on their call has so many grammatical error, same with their emails.... I can’t even...

Anyway, yours should be able to be tracked online by tomorrow I am guessing.

Mine was delivered on 23 (delayed by BLS because when purolator first tried to deliver there wasn’t anyone at the office to receive it), and no email from BLS yet either.

Absolutely the worst company I have ever come across (by far!)
My application was picked up by Purolator on 23rd Feb & delivered on 24th Feb. Haven't received any mail so far, but the tracking on the BLS website says application date as 3rd March & current status is "Processing at Consulate General". Please track your applications on BLS website as well.

Hey this is so strange. I had initially applied for my PCC on 2nd February but my entire application was returned to me on 22nd February. While filling there is a section to add parent details where they have asked for only one. It clearly asked for parent name (first + last name) so added my parent's first and last name. My application was returned on the basis that my parents name in the passport did not have a middle name but they have clearly asked for the first and last name in the form. I had to again pay for Puralator to deliver the package and start all over. So in my opinion I think its much better that they didn't return your application as I waited almost a month and now still waiting for their mail. I haven't received any mail from them even when they returned the application there was no communication from their end and I still cannot track it online. I am really worried as I don't have much time left to apply for my PR application if I the PCC application doesn't go through this time. I wish the process was smoother and less stressful.

Hey my package was delivered on 23rd too after they had returned it back. I haven't received any mail and on the BLS tracking website is it still showing details about the application that was returned back in February. There is no mention about the application that I sent back.

Guys I have another question.

If I need to apply for PR application. While filling the PCC form the purpose of PCC should be immigration purposes other than citizenship or residence permit ?

I spoke to the representative again and he asked me my query through mail that the same address Brampton.p@bls... Did you receive any acknowledgment or mail from that ID again?

Oh my goodness! That’s even more harrowing than my experience. So sorry you are going through this. :(

BLS is abusing us applicants... I think we should join forces and complain to better business bureau. The company should be sued.

They told me to email the same ID. I received an email from it saying in broken/ awkward English (like all their correspondences and their website), "it‘s a No-reply email”

Hello,
I have to apply for Canada PR and have query for PCC. As per CIS, I should get police clearance from all the countries where I lived in last ten years. Since I lived in the US for more than ten years in last ten years, should I get only FBI clearance or apply for PCC through BLS for India too as I hold Indian passport. Please let me know. Thanks!

You need only about apply for FBI clearance. India PCC not required so Long as you didn’t spend 6 months in a row in India (Even for a visit) at any point in the last 10 years. Lucky you!
