If you choose yes for a mailed version of the Edo check, do you still get the PDF version online immediately?

Yes. You get PDF immediately and hard copy takes time to come via mail.

I applied through a new online application process (eDO) which was started some time back. Looks like you used the old process which take 3-4 months. I think there is an option to convert to the faster eDO. Just check the forum and people have discussed that earlier. There should be details on FBI portal as well on how to convert that to the faster online application process.

I am not a US citizen or PR. I stayed in US for few years and now currently working in India. Can i apply for eDO even when not residing in USA?

Thanks a lot, so i can apply from India. I have already applied for mailing option and it reached FBI on June 14th. Looks like it will take 3 or 4 months to get the PCC. I have one question. I have a CRS score of 453 and want to create express entry asap. I am just waiting for PCC, since the CIC has reduced the duration to 60 days. I want to apply along with my PCC. Now i want to go with eDO option. May i know once after getting PCC from EDO, can we request FBI to not charge my mail request or discard it?

No-Isn’t it obvious? Your fingerprints will spread out on paper and they won’t be able to search in database. Why do you want to fold?

Hmm. Okay but if the ink can spread - won't it spread out on the envelope itself?

On a sidenote, how long is it valid for? I got FBI PCC in last week of April. I got my IELTS result last week and *should* get the ITA the coming week. Can I still upload the copy or do I need to order a new one?

hi all,

how do you get the response from FBI, will they send you an email with answer ?

if you have used the eDO option, then everything is over email. even the PCC is given over email, while they mail a hard copy (looks like a printout of the attacment you get in email) is delivered in a week or two.

Thank you,
I just did eDO last week, and it shows they received my fingerprint yesterday.

If the timelines are still the same as Feb 2018 (when I got mine), you should get the email by end of this week
