when you applied for the police certificate, did they ask you - to which country you are going to submit it?
 
From the statement made, i understand that you are applying for UK.
Its absolutely fine.
Nothing to worry about.
All the best.

Kind Regards,
Nick

I think they made mistake in police certificate on PCC certificate they clearly show what purpose you need the certificate.
so, before submitting this PCC make sure you correct this mistake other wise VO will ask for another PCC certificate this is my opinion.

thanks

Please don't just imagine and make opinion about such serious question raised by an applicant.

Police certificates are required by CIC to determine if applicants have any criminal record.

What is a police certificate for CIC ?

According to CIC.gc.ca, a police certificate is a copy of your criminal record or a declaration of the absence of any criminal record. Police certificates are different in each country and territory and may be called police clearance certificates, good conduct certificates, judicial record extracts, etc. They are issued by police authorities or government departments and used by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) to prevent individuals who pose a risk to Canada's security from entering the country.

Therefore any heading, title or remark on the certification will not be an impediment to submit the PCC to CIC.

If i were you i would do as follows:

1) if you are in short of time: then send the certificate which you already have, and if later CIC were not happy with it, then you can provide another one. If they don't ask - then you are done with this requirement.

2) If you have time enough time: i would go back to the police and explain to them that i need it for "Canada Immigration" not for
the UK - and would request them to correct it. Ofcourse the remaining content of the certificate will be the same, its just that its
more "Professional" to send CIC a certificate which is addressed to "them" rather than addressed to a different country.

In my personal opinion the certificate which you have now should be fine, but it still depends on the CIC officer opinion
 
It should be OK. My spouse has same wording in his UK PCC.
 
Dear KEM

How did you managed to get PCC from UK? I am looking for the same and now I am in Riyadh. Could you please let me know how to go about it? I was in the UK from 2004 to 2009 and after that in India and Saudi Arabia.

Thanks
