Hi guys!

I have a question, My wife (who is presently in Saudi Arabia since October 2014) has lived in India all her life before moving to Saudi Arabia. Her Passport was issued from Shimla Passport Office, whereas her place of residence was Chamba H.P.

Now the question is, for Indian PCC through PSK, does she have to go to Shimla PSK or she can also opt for the newly opened Kangra POPSK, which is closer to her hometown?

Thanks in advance.

Please advise @navinball @mr.preetsingh @cansha :)

Hello,

For Indian PCC, is PSK PCC sufficient or do you also have to get police clearance from local police offices?

After 18 years of age, I have lived at multiple places.
Some people are telling me to get PCCs from local police station of all the addresses (where I have lived for more than 6 months).

I will be specially thankful if someone who recently got a PR could help me out.
So did u use one or had to use of diff places ?? Guide me plz

I have seen a recent rejection because of a PCC from Police Station.
Having said that, I would advice you to rather follow Canada.ca website.
Everything is written in simple english

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/medical-police/police-certificates/how/india.html

If you are a citizen of India:
If you live in India:
For residents of Punjab: You can apply to your local Senior Superintendent of Police, or the senior ranking police official at the police station in your district.

For residents of Delhi: You can apply at your local district police station or online on the Delhi Police website. The website will list what information and documents you need. If you apply online, your certificate will be returned to you electronically.

For residents of other states: You can apply at your local district police station.

For all residents of India: You can apply for a Police Clearance Certificate from the Passport office on the Passport India website. The website will list what information and documents you need.
You are saying rejection??

Hi. I am filing open spouse work permit. I have taken Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) from Chandigarh/Punjab since my passport has Punjab address in it and was issued from Chandigarh as well. Now I'm living in Bangalore from May 2019. My question is if I should get PCC done from Bangalore too or is the one issued from Punjab is sufficient in my case. My consultant strongly suggests to get an additional PCC from Bangalore too since he has seen rejections for this reason in the past.

Two suggestions

1. get a PCC from a PSK and if it is from a PSK doesn't matter where it is issued as it covers whole India
2. Fire your consultant. Because if he didn't know this basic information most likely he is a quack and makes me wonder what else he is screwing up on your application

PCC should be less than 1 year old, that's the only condition for India. Rest, you can get PCC from any PSK office in India, its approved and covers the whole country. Your consultant might have received a rejection for a different reason.

Most of the open work permits from India are usually rejected, as far as I have heard from different people. So, Wish you good luck.

Hi,

Although i know that PCC from police is no more a valid option for India applications, can you suggest me on my case below?

I came to Mexico on Business Visa (Not work permit) on October 10, 2019 and got ITA on Nov 27,2019.
I had taken PCC from PSK delhi on September 26, 2019 ( 2 weeks before my exit from India) which i now realized is no more valid.
I have to go back to India on April 5, and i checked with Consulate at Indian Embassy Mexico if i can get a PCC from here and they are not cooperating stating that they only provide these services to Work Permits.

Now i have 3 options, can someone please help which is the right way to go ahead please?

1. Obtain Online PCC from DelhiPolice Online PCC service and attach both PSK PCC(dated 26 sept) and DelhiPolice PCC with a LOE explaining my situation of being unable to obtain PCC from Indian Embassy Mexico(i can show travel tickets between my city and city where embassy is and my taxi receipts between airport and embassy) and requesting to consider Delhi Police PCC for the missing 15 days, as i was in delhi at my permanent address between september 26 and october 10. (PS: I have stayed at multiple addresses during college, work but permanent address has always stayed Delhi)

2. Travel to India for a week and obtain a PCC, the cic website says PCC date of issue is valid if it was issued last time you stayed for 6 or more months in a row.( Is this option legit, this will be a USD 3000 return journey for me so wanted to make sure its valid). Post obtaining PCC i need to travel back to Mexico.

3. Attach only existing PCC with LOE explaining my situation.

Kindly suggest me with this.

That means if I will took pcc from my hometown PSK and mention all address history of India where I live in last 10 year that doesn't affect my application.

Please correct me if I am wrong.
DId you get your PCC from local police station for different addreses?
I got rejection recently as I had stayed in multiple states and took PCC from local police station.
