Hi there,
I received my ITA on 2nd Nov, 2016. So my last day to submit my application is 2nd Jan, 2016.
I will be travelling on 11th Nov, 2016 and will return to Canada on 29th Nov, 2016.
I am an Indian citizen and we are required to submit our original passport for PCC at the Indian High Commission in Toronto.
The average PCC processing time is 4-6 weeks as per BLS. Additionally, I expect a slow down due to the fact that it is December and many people go on vacation (plus Christmas holidays).
So I am worried I will not have enough time to get my PCC after returning to Canada on 29th Nov, 2016 before the last date to submit my application on 2nd Jan, 2016.
I have read the FAQs on the CIC website which mention that they can provide extension but they also mentioned they can be rejected.
I was wondering if anyone had a positive or negative experience with this LOE for the PCC delay. Should I be worried?
I am thinking of cancelling my plans of travel (which costs some $$, but is less risky) so i can start the PCC processing right away.
Your advice/experiences are appreciated.
