HI . The new guidelines from Feb 2018 mention that we only need to provide PCC for countries where we lives for 6 months in a row.
How do they define "In a row"
I lived in a country for 8 months, but took several trips lasting 2 days to 1 week at a time. I have visa stamps that prove all entry and exit from that country. At no time was in the country consecutively for 6 months. Do I need a PCC ? I don't have any address proof from that time as I was a consultant to a local company which took care of our accomodation
Hi,
Did any of you guys find out the answer to your situation?
I'm in the same situation, where I was in a country for 3 months (Mid Oct- Mid Jan) left for 10 days (Mid Jan - Late Jan), went back for 6 days (Late Jan into early Feb) waiting for a flight before leaving again for 2 weeks (early Feb - Mid Feb), before finally coming back for 2 months before leaving again for a long period.

I guess I will. Was hoping to avoid having to apply for this one if I could get away with it, just to save me the hassle as it has to come from Thailand.

I don’t understand what you mean by “your address remains the same in address history”. I didn’t have an address there. I was on a tourist visa and Thailand was a country I use in South East Asia to travel in between other countries in that region.
I also have a similar situation. I'm from the UK and have requested UK Police cert, which is en route. I've spend around 4 months, end of May until beginning of October in Canada. Went back to the UK for a month, and then came back to Canada beginning of November. So I've spent 5 out of the last 6 months in Canada, and by the time I send off the PR application in a few weeks it'll be 6 out of 7 months, but not 6 months straight.
The application checklist states I don't need to apply for a Canadian Police certificate, and they'll request one if they need it. However there is a box I have to tick/not tick depending on if I've been in Canada for the last 6 months. I'm leaning towards not ticking it, because technically it's the most accurate response to what they've requested.
