The PCC has no expiry date. Also, the PCCs are used to determine criminal admissibility. There rules for the PCC are
- For the applicant’s current country of residence, the police certificate must have been issued no more than 6 months before the submission of the e-APR.
- For countries in which the applicant no longer resides, the police certificate must have been issued after the last time the applicant stayed in that country for 6 months or more in a row.
- Police certificates meeting the above requirements can be accepted even if they have an expiry date that has passed.
- This includes the requirement to provide a police certificate for countries in which the individual has travelled for 6 months or more in a row, whether or not the individual had an established residential address during this time.
First of there is no such thing as extension of COPR and PRV. If you cannot travel before the expiry date of COPR and PRV, your application will be re-oped and a review will take place and new documents will be issued.
The only thing that IRCC will check is that meds are current, extend them or ask for re-med as required.
If you have changed your country of residence or there has been a material change in your circumstances, you may be asked for additional docs.
