There was no photo process for California PCC. I took photos at the Livescan office because they had immigration photo service and I was lazy to go anywhere else to take photos for CIC application (so the photos were for CIC application, not for California PCC. Sorry for the confusion).

What I did before going to Livescan office was to fill this form http://ag.ca.gov/fingerprints/forms/bcii_rr_8016.pdf. Then I took the form to Livescan office with my ID and payment. And the fingerprint technician at the office entered my info into the computer and took my fingerprints (this is electronic, so no ink!). The fee was $18 for fingerprint service and $32 for government fee (= total $50). I did this Livescan on 12/1/09 (about 4pm), and received the result from State of California Department of Justice by mail on 12/4/09 (postmarked on 12/2/09). The result was dated 12/1/09.

And the step 5 in "ELECTRONIC (Live Scan) SUBMISSIONS" (http://ag.ca.gov/fingerprints/visaimmigration.php) says "Once the submission is received and processed, the DOJ will mail the response via U.S. mail to you ONLY." So you can print this website and take it to Livescan office, so it will be easy for them to understand the process.

Here's the contact info of the Livescan office I went, so if you have any question during the process, you or your Livescan technician can call this office (the fingerprint technicians in this office may not be experts who know everything, but they definitely have more knowledge than I do):
AAA Livescan Fingerprinting West LA
1244 Westwood Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90024
(310) 470-9233

thanks Jasper, that was great info.

Yes, I went to NY Consulate. At entrance you'll get a Token # and u have to wait for your turn to submit papers. I waited for 45 mins for my turn. Take Original Passports, Photocopies of Passport + VISA + I-94 and Misc. Form with Photo.

Yes. you will have option to pick it up in the eve (when ready) or get it mailed (you pay for it)

I only showed Original passport, we only submit copy of passport to them.

 

[desikiVAAT]

I agree. I want the CIC process to be as short as possible, so I'll send my application with FBI clearance.

Also, I found an interesting post in FSW category in this forum. The following post contains a timeline for FBI clearance:

Yes, even i would want to avoid complications of not submitting FBI report...then they asking for it/or returning my application or me sending it separately...its better send them all together.

Hi,

Im planning to get started with PCC @ Indian consulate - NY before my nomination arrives. Can anyone pls calrify the following:

1) PCC @ Indian consulate - NY states that along with other documents there should be supporting documents relating to the purpose for obtaining the P.C.C. - How far is this true? and in my case I'm planning to apply for PCC before my nomination. Is this possible?

2) What is the time line to get PCC @ Indian consulate - NY?

Thanks

1) I applied at SFO India consulate: Just mention on the cover letter(if u are sending via mail) else if u visit them they will ask you the purpose - they mention on the PCC ...." person X is o.k for visa for Canada immigration" . They will not ask for any other documents relating to the purpose....the documents u need to send are Miscellaneous Form, personal performa(i think this applies to SFO consulate only), proof of residence(DL is enough but no harm attaching Utilities bill), passport copies + documents showing u r legal resident (visa etc) If u mention on cover letter that u want it for Canada immigration make sure you either underline it, bold or write in capital letters so that it is clearly visible.

2) Indian consulates have become quite fast...atleast SFO is...have heard many other people say that SFO is fast. I think i read some post where NY gave PCC in a week or two. If u have passport issued at NY consulate you will get it the same day.

You do not need a nomination to apply for India PCC... no one will ask you to give proof that u have a nomination!
