Where I am now.
I have done my IELTS and my ECA so far. My CRS still seems fairly low (despite a CLB9), in the early 400+ and I don't expect ITA anytime soon. However, I am hopeful on the OINP opening in the near future and I believe I have a responsibility to be ready with post-ITA docs if and when required.

Now, here comes my situation. (PCC)
I have had cumulative 6 months+ stay in the last 10 years in the US and in Sweden. I currently reside in India.
I have done my research on getting the PCC from all 3 countries but the confusion arises as I have an impending travel back to the US presumably by end of October/early November.
  • I shall apply for the Swedish PCC and that is likely to take a month or so.
  • If I apply for the FBI PCC (US) now and before I receive the PCC, if I have to travel to the US, then do I have to apply for a new FBI PCC after landing there for my CIC application?
  • Also if I apply for my Indian PCC now, and I end up travelling after receiving my PCC, do I need to reapply for the Indian PCC once I land in the US?

Is it even worth the effort thinking about getting the PCC (apart from Sweden obviously since I don't have a reason to go back there now) done now with the forthcoming travel in mind?
What are the alternatives that I should be looking at?

Since the wait-times for the PCCs are loooong, this is causing more concern than it should actually be.
Please suggest folks!
