Hi everyone, My husband had applied for PCC from US through VFS global. His current status is "PCC report is clear and is available for issuance". It's been at the same stage for more than 2-3 weeks now. Is there any email ID or contact number we can reach out to passport seva or Indian embassy/consulate to follow up on the application? Thanks!

I got my passport renewed at Toronto in Sep 2021. I applied for PCC in May 2022. It had to go through each step just like everyone else. check my timeline posted in thread.

Hi Team,
I was looking to apply for PCC through BLS for my spouse, though he is currently in India. Is it still valid ffor me to apply through BLS or the applicant has to be here?

He has to apply at a passport office in India. PCC through BLS is valid only if the applicant is in Canada.

His passport address and current residential address is of different states. is it necessary that he has to go to passport office of the one which is in passport or he can apply at any passport office?

I think he needs to update his current address in his passport before applying for PCC

HI EVERYONE.

Please help.

I applied for indian PCC through BLS on 18th March. I put my current address where I lived just for 1.5 months after marriage. I attached Aadhar card with updated address on it along with marriage certificate. When police verification was done at my current address, they said everything is Ok and they asked for some signed form from my previous address which we provided them. But now the status is showing ‘ The police verification is not clear and is under review at Indian embassy’ .

What should I do? How can I contact Indian embassy?
Hi, did you get your PCC from Indian embassy? What did you do to get it? I am in the same boat with respect to the status. Thanks!
