My ITA application got recently rejected because my wife's police certificate was not complete according to them. I live in Dubai and I am from Pakistan and I got the police certificate made for my wife from Karachi mentioning the dates from 2013 till date. This covers her time spent in Pakistan after we got married. However, prior to this she was living from 1996 till 2013 at a different address with her parents.
They have basically raised an objection saying that the police certificate does not cover the full period of time spent in Pakistan.
Does this mean that we have to mention all the addresses on the police certificate or make multiple certificates depending on the addresses? Has anyone else faced this problem before?
Ok. I had a chance to look at a few examples of the Pakistan police certificate online. It seems that they do stress upon the various addresses where the individual lived in the country. Therefore you will need to get multiple certificates for the two addresses. Unlike countries like the United States which have a centralized database where they can easily pull your record based on a social security number, Pakistan does not have this system in place as yet. Therefore even if you had lived at multiple addresses in the United States the one certificate would suffice since the social security number for the individual would be easily trackable across the different addresses or states that were lived in.

no her certificate did not cover that period. her certificate only covered the period when she got married to me. and yes i did mention other addresses in her address history
The certificate needs to be from AGE 18 onwards. Its not about the addresses if the city she stayed in is the same. If its different cities then yes she needs multiple PCC - otherwise 1 is fine.
