Hi, Ahmed.
It is a bit tricky. Due to the nature of my home country's PCC, i am not able to ask for it in advance. IRCC requested it at the same time as RPRF through my CIC profile. I got a message there with a PDF with all the instructions. The weird thing is, it said "you can send a copy of the necessary documents by directly replying to this email.."
There was no email...., as I said, it was directly sent through my CIC profile. Now, the funny thing is, due to the particular nature of the PCC, I am able to send all the required documents to the Canadian embassy in my home country and they ask for it on my behalf (and they send it back to IRCC). This means i never even saw my PCC... the embassy sent it directly to IRCC (by email I supposed, or an internal network they work with)
Now, on the other hand, PPR came in BY email.. no message or any update on my CIC profile. This email was sent in directly by the CPC in Ottawa.
By the way, i got a new PPR request today again...exactly as the one from thursday... maybe a glitch in the system.
Hope this helps, and best of luck!
Thanks @Macarad for instant response, It is much appreciated.
The reason for my question is that I searched for this point long time, and I found that if the PCC was not submitted upfront, so all will be done through online forms, as IRCC will not take anything as hard copy later on. I called the CIC and the agent told me that I can submit it anytime if I want through the webform link. My only concern is that the PCC is enclosed and sealed, labeled not to open unless reached to the CIC. and that why I dont know how to scan it unless I open it.
I think finally I will have to open it and scan it.
Again thanks for your kind explanation.
Ahmed
