Hi tylerchu2015. I understand that your deadline to submit fbi pcc was over on January 18. Did you submit a CSE for another extension or did you submit a loe. How much time did CIC allow you in the second extension to submit fbi pcc. Also, did you call CIC on Wednesday evening EST or Wednesday morning EST. Coz I called them on Wednesday morning EST and they hadn't finished processing my application yet. My application was received on 2nd October as well and cc was charged on 21st January.

My understanding is that it will be done all over again (that is, another 4 months' wait!).
This is why I panicked and sent another set of applications, at 2 months into the wait.
Terrible! So inefficient.

If the finger prints get rejected for any reason. Do you have to start the process again from week 1? Or do they give you another opportunity to submit the finger prints straight away?

Really not sure why they still don't let us use a channeler, would be so much quicker!

Would sending another set of applications not confuse things? I sent mine by regular post so am stressing a bit now because I have no way of knowing if it gets lost, and have been considering sending another one by registered mail this time, but thought that might complicate things if they did get my earlier one.

Why do you think it would confuse things? From what I understand, FBI opens packages according to when they were received. Your second set of application would reach FBI later than the 1st one, right? So, by the time they process your second application, the first one was already processed (whatever the outcome).

Guys, my credit card was charged a week back. I still don't know if my fingerprints are approved, which is so frustrating. I called the customer care and they said my application is under process and that they cannot inform me yet whether my fingerprints are fine. They asked me to call them after a week :( :( Kindly advise how much time they take to inform whether the fingerprints are in fine. Thanks for your guidance.

No issues. We can send any number of fresh applications with fingerprint cards. All applications are processed separately even if its from same individual. I sent multiple and received multiple reports.
If you are unsure then send another application with prints. this will be the backup plan.

Thanks for that. I think I will send another application. And it wouldn't hurt to have an additional original of the PCC I suppose.

Recently my credit card number was changed. What is the easiest and sure way of conveying this to FBI?

Hi I had applied for a second extention to CIC on December 29th. My deadline for submission of FBI PCC was Jan 12, 2016. However I got an email from CIC on Jan 14 stating that I need to submit my FBI PCC by Jan 13! I think that's a typo because they also enabled me to upload the PCC and the date next to it showed Feb 17. I have now raised a CSE to check if it was a technical error. I am hoping it is.

I hope the PCC comes soon, my application had reached FBI on October 08, 2016. Hope this helps! Good Luck to all!

Hi,

Another question.. THis weekend I will be moving to different state in USA. My PCC application reached on 8th October so I hope they process it next week.

Should I submit change of address for to FBI now? or is it better if I can just use USPS change of address and letter will reach me?

Good luck man! Hope you receive your FBI clearance very soon. Mine was received by FBI on Nov 6th. I'm still not sure whether I can get it by early March.

Just keep calling them everyday. The process takes me two weeks.

Last I heard, USPS doesnt forward legal letters. Better to keep the same address and ask someone living at the address to mail it to you. You can call FBI and ask if they can change the address in time. Best of luck.
