If you are still insistent on keeping Mumbai PCC, it should cover all of your stay in India and any address that you list in your application address history. Better to avoid it when it is not required by CIC.

Hi DEEPCUR & viki1805 - thanks for your reply. It's a great relief to hear what y'all are recommending!
Just to confirm - I only need PCC from my nearest consulate even though I've lived most of my life in India? Doesn't CIC ask for PCC from places where you've lived for more than 6 mos? This is where I'm getting confused. Please advise. Thanks!

the indian consulate can provide you a PCC for your stay in India so far. As long as the PCC is dated after you left the country (India) and have resided in the US, your PCC would be valid for until the date it was issued.
Getting it from India will lead to more complications. It is always a better idea to get the PCC from your place of residence which is the US. so just go ahead and get it from your nearest consulate and you will be fine.

Thanks, viki1805.
One last thing, getting PCC from nearest Indian consulate is recommended even if my address on my current passport is a US one? I'm guessing that's irrelevant but just wanted to confirm.

having a passport issued in the US is actually beneficial, since that makes the process a whole lot quicker. but yes, the current address on your passport does not really affect you in anyway as far as the PCC goes.
