Queries related to PCC from Indian consulate SFO

[akapil84]

Hello Members,

I am expecting an ITA very soon, and have few queries related to getting PCC from Indian consulate in SFO:

I renewed my passport from Houston last year with permanent address in Delhi and US address on passport.

• Now, the permanent address in Delhi is not valid anymore since my parents have moved to Punjab. If i provide Punjab address in Personal performa form, will it cause any problem in getting PCC?
• Also, i am in residing in US since last 3 years, so what address should i fill in section 8(b) as present address?

Did anyone faced similar situation? Please suggest.

Looking forward to your reply.

Thank you.

You should be fine. Make sure to use the Delhi address only. Don't change it now as the new report will take a lot of time.
I faced similar issue and it took me 2 months to get the report.

Thanks for your reply, did you do it from SFO ? I got my passport in Dec 2016 from Houston and have not traveled to India after that, shouldn't they have the clearance already? I do not want to complicate the matter by giving wrong information.

you should be fine with the pcc as long as the address is the one on the passport but if its a new address then it will be a prob.
The indian pcc just specifies that the passport holder has not committed any crime and nowhere do they mention the address.
Let me know if this helps

Hello, i applied in person, the PCC will be available after a week, you have the option to collect it in person or get it in mail. You will have to provide a pre-paid return envelope for the second option.

Hi,

I have to submit an application for India PCC at SFO through mail for me and my wife, so one single money order of $27 + $27 would be fine or do i need to provide two separate money orders?

Thanks

Hello, Thank you for your reply. I will be applying for my PCC in person sometime this week. So, just wanted to know your experience about it.I see that if you are applying in person, we need to just take all the original documents and there is no need of photocopies or notarized documents. Can you confirm if this is true? Also, can you please list the documents you had carried / submitted. I just want to double check.

Thank You once again
