Hey man,

copies of:

1) Passport
2) Aashar card
3) 10th class certificate
4) and PCC issuance email that you would receive over email once the PCC is initiated in India.

Thank you. Is it initiated for you? and did you receive an email?

Yes, I did receive an email regarding the PCC initiation in my home town. Received a call from police station the next day and my father submitted these documents...

Nice man but it's so irritating to see a 10-day delay between "PCC report is clear" and "PCC is printed". I hope this is a single-time or rare delay and doesn't happen to our applications.

and one more thing, is you PCC from Toronto??

My PCC was processed in BLS Brampton. Regarding the 10-day delay, it might help to email the PCC Toronto office request for expediting the PCC issuance once you see the status "Police Verification Report is clear. PCC is available for issuance ". I believe it helped in my case.

Telangana State. Just Passport and Adhaar card copies are what they verified.

Hi everyone,

Your PASSPORT application has received at our BLS Postal Brampton Center on 13-12-2023. Please allow 4-5 business days for processing it to IHC/CGI. Please note that this is an auto-generated mail & does not indicate that your application has processed to Indian High commission or Consulate general of India. Please allow 4-5 business days for processing your application to Indian High commission or Consulate general of India. Once your application processed in our BLS center, you will be notified through email service with a unique BLS reference number. The unique number can be use for tracking purpose on BLS website.

This is the status from the BLS website since I submitted my postal application. Just had a call with BLS and they told I'll have to wait for them to process the application. I am just wondering if this is normal timeline or should I take any steps ?

Hey man,

That's great to hear and it would be an awesome help if you could share the email you have contacted to expedite the process...

Hi everyone,

It's kinda normal in some cases because of the high number of documents that the CGI is processing especially with the number of draws(ITA's) that have been issued recently.

what I would do is wait till the end of this week, I am sure they will at least forward it to the CGI/Hight commission. If not contact them via email/phone for further info.

Yes same here on the BLS site it shows "Processing at Consulate General " and on PSK "PCC application is under review at Indian Embassy/Consulate. " Hope it moves to the next stages quicker.

My wife's application is in the same status it shows BLS received on 14th DEC no movement after that and I hope this week it should move to CGI.

Hi,
I think PCC is required for dependents too, so I need PCC for my wife and my kid. So Do I need to do a separate process through BLS for her or can I tag her application anyhow in mine. Also, do I need PCC for my 2 year old kid? He lived in India for 18 initial moths.

Yes same here on the BLS site it shows "Processing at Consulate General " and on PSK "PCC application is under review at Indian Embassy/Consulate. " Hope it moves to the next stages quicker.

Great!

So, we can expect police verification in next 2 to 11 days, I guess.
