Hello all,

Wanted a guidance whether it is beneficial to submit PCC upfront while submitting the Parents PR application for parents or wait for CIC to ask for it.

They are based in Delhi and have traveled to USA AND Canada multiple times on Visit status for close to 180 days but not exceeded 6 months in these countries in one stretch.

Please advice. Thank you

Finally Received eCOPR today -

Application submitted and AOR - Nov 25, 2022
PR confirmation mail received - Sept 14, 2023
PR portal credentials received and address and picture submitted- Sept 22, 2023
ECoPR received - Oct 11, 2023

Waiting on PR Card now
Congrats. Wanted to check if you sent the PCC along with the application, or later upon asked by IRCC?

Also, did you get it from PSK or from Local Police Station in India?

I am submitting the application for my parents as I got the ITA a few weeks back, so need guidance if submitting PCC upfront with the application itself will help expedite the PR processing or wait for IRCC to ask them to submit.

Other question I have is if they have not exceeded their stay on Visitor status more than 6 months in USA and Canada in one stretch, like they have lived for close to 180 days at a stretch but not beyond that, so do we need to arrange PCC from USA and Canada?

Yes, they will accept the PCC if submitted upfront, so if you can, I recommend just submitting it.
Make sure you submit PCC's for all long stays since age 18.

There is a good chance they might ask for the US one as well. The process for the US one is a bit tedious and takes a while so even if you don't submit it upfront, you could always submit it via webform later before they request it. It's up to you, really.

Hi All,
I got an update after 2 years - they're requesting for Canadian PCC as my parents previously lived in Canada for 7 months. They're not in Canada right now. Please if someone can let me know how to obtain the Canadian PCC. I did search the thread, googled and even read on the website - but not sure if it's very clear. They're asking to visit some third party for fingerprints - but these 3rd parties too are in Canada.

Will really appreciate the reply as I have less than 30 days.
Did you solve this? The instructions are a bit confusing but I believe you have to literally send to a canadian company a paper copy of your mothers fingerprints signed by a police official in your country,

So i am going to tell you what we did since my parents are from punjab india and im in canada ofcourse and i already knew a person (a agency who does all these stuff in surrey) they charged me around $250 ans told me to get her finger print of my parent and then passport and other 2 ids notarized. After all we send all scanned copies to agent they checked its all good then we have to courier by dhl straight to them once they received it then they applied and we got it in 1 week.

The person who did the fingerprints was in jalandhar punjab. I believe there are some but they changer way more there are some who will come to your house and do it but thats takes too much time and as you know its no time wasting situation so my parents went to them same day and done it for 3500 rs.

Let me know if you need more help about it

Request letter from IRCC should mention which country PCC is required, and if the request is for PA or for dependents.

Hi all, I have noticed in pgp 2021 the applicants whom files have been transferred to Vancouver office are still looking for updates after AOR and sponsor approval. Seems they haven't find any update and its been almost 22 Months since they have applied. Did any one received any update from Vancouver office or How can some one find update from Vancouver office ?

received passport request on my email this morning.
Congratulations! It is truly a long journey. I wonder what happened between “Medical passed – July 28, 2022” and the new Medical submitted a year later. Were there any additional documents required and reviewed? I wonder your delay is due to a security screening.
Thanks again!
