The whole system is so flawed for getting a simple document. My Police Verification was done last week at home and I asked the embassy about an update yesterday. They responded to check with the local police.
I called the police early morning today. He is claiming ( I have doubts) that the report was sent to the headquarters in my area last week but now the place is closed due to Covid lockdown so it won't be moved. I seriously don't know what to do and who to follow up. If the place is closed, I can't do much other than wait for the lockdown to get over.

Purpose and Document for seeking PCC must be ascertained .Official communication from the Concerned authorities - what does this mean? Is to some document which needs to be given while applying PCC?

Woww.. It seems the process is NOT only different based on the country where you apply. And it depends on place where you apply too.

In Toronto Checklist, it was specified only for those who doesn't have Indian passport. I would let anyone who did this before reply on this since I applied in Toronto with Indian passport.

The same question was posted during last year. You can try asking question whether he was able to figure out or not

As @canprind2020 has said, the checklist and documents appears to be different for ottawa than for Toronto.

If you are applying for Canadian PR, I interpret that document to be your ITA and any checklist on IRCC website that lists you are required to submit an Indian Police Certificate. (This was a requirement at the Indian consulate in Singapore where I obtained an Indian PCC for purposes of Indian PR and that is what I submitted.)

If you are applying for American Immigration (greencard), submit your NVC Welcome email and screen shot of the checklist on your NVC portal (list of civil documents showing Indian Police Certificate).

If other reason for application, provide similar proof of why you require an Indian Police Certificate.

Finally, I would double confirm by calling BLS and CGI.

Hope that helps.

yes seems the checklist varies between Toronto and Ottawa. I am curious to know what kind of document will suffice to clarify the need.

The reference to a post from last year doesn't have much info as no one replied on that.

seems you have hit the bingo. I think ITA should be good to prove the motive for obtaining PCC.

I am trying to connect with BLS but with no luck. See if you are able to get through and get clarification. Would be very helpful. Highly appreciate.

Hello everyone!
Postal Brampton requested that I fill again the application form and send it by email. I did it last Thursday but haven't heard from them since then. Is that normal? I don't have any tracking information yet. It is frustrating this process in so many ways ...

Hello,
I need some help!
I signed all the PCC application forms with a Blue ink pen ... will that be an issue?

I hear you! In fact getting an Indian PCC from BLS from these countries is also very quick. BLS Canada (and CGI Toronto)is...............special...

All I can say is, keep calling. It may take hours or even weeks, but you will eventually get through. Yes, your entire life will have to be compromised in the meantime while you have to deal with BLS...

Many of us here have been through the same thing. You may refer to my previous posts here.
