Hi Friends,
I got ITA yesterday, but I am traveling to Canada today at work permit and will be staying in company accommodation for 3 weeks. What I have got to know is that I need to get PCC from Canada only, but since I don't have any address proof, what are the alternatives?

I also checked that Toronto CGI provides emergency PCC service? Can I go there and do my PCC in spite of my current address in Calgary.

Kindly give suggestions. I appreciate your help!

Thanks
Shaminder

Let me clarify. My company applied for my work permit while I applied for PR through express entry. I got an ITA yesterday, but I am moving to Canada today using my work permit. As per the IRCC website, if I am no longer in India, I should get my Indian PCC done from Indian Embassy or Consulate. So in order to apply it through Canada, one of the documents is address proof which I don't have currently as I will be in company accommodation for 3 weeks. Within this time frame, I will try to get a lease agreement that I can showcase as an address proof, but then the Calgary office shows minimum processing time for PCC as 4-6 weeks which would waste a lot of my time to apply. So my questions are:
  • Can I show my current hotel accommodation along with my offer letter to apply for PCC? or do I must get a lease agreement before applying PCC?
  • Do we have emergency services in Calgary to get PCC?
  • I checked in Toronto, if we apply through CGI, we can get it in a day. So, can I get it done from Toronto even when my address proof is of Calgary?

Thanks!


So where you say PCC from Canada only, you have PCC for all other countries you have lived more than 6 months in since 18 ?

Have you even spent 6 months in Canada yet to require a PCC from Canada ? Maybe only me that is confused by your post requiring an emergency PCC from RCMP.

I was also confused my your initial post. You can apply through BLS for Indian PCC and they take around 10 days to process it. I don't know about address proof, but you can call and ask CGI Toronto. No problem, if you go to Toronto and get your PCC.
