I am considering preparing my FSW application and submitting it next month i.e. starting from May 2014. I am “assuming” that the process would be the same, and those who have done it can share their experiences with me.

I don’t have a Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) and I don’t think I can get it soon. Hence, I am going to elect to send it later. In this regard, I’d be grateful if someone could answer the following questions:

1. Later when I get the Police Certificates do I directly send it to the Visa Office (VO) of my country? I understand that you first send the application to the CIO. After a PER they send it to the VO. So do I directly send it to the VO after the file has been transferred?

2. If I wait for the VO to request the PCC from me, would they have a time-limit/deadline for me to send it e.g. Does the VO send you a request that you should submit the PCC in 30 days? What happens if for some reason my PCC takes more than 30 days?

3. Finally, if anyone knows, how long does the VO take to request the PCC once they get your file? Is there some way to get a rough estimate of when they would request the PCC? E.g. 3 months after the PER (I know the CIO does this)? I’d be happy to hear of your timelines irrespective of country.

Thank you in advance
O. O.
