Hi All,

I applied for my parent's PCC on 9th Dec at BLS Canada office in Toronto. From last two days that status online is "In Transit from Consulate General to BLS Centre". Any idea how long it takes to reach at BLS? I've to submit the PCC before 25th Dec.

Also I am reading here a lot of people are submitting Aadhar card, Voter id etc. Did CIC asked you all for it? in the letter I got from CPC-M a month ago, it only asked for PCC, Passport Copy, Resume, RPRF fees.

Did you pay BLS to deliver to your house or are you picking up from their centre?

I have received Bio instruction for my Dad on Dec.12, and EOS changed to DM on Dec.12. I didn't receive any email about application approval letter after that. Till today, I just called cic, the agent said cic send me the letter by mail. I signed contact by email,why they still send a mail. They said it will take 4 weeks to receive the letter. anyone has any experience?

My file is still in Missisauga as well, although the PA has decision made since early December... And while one of the agents confirmed to me that application has been approved, another one told me it is still in process and overseas LVO is going to make the final decision. Confusing...

I want to make a GCMS notes request, and now I realized that I forgot to scan the original "appointment of a representative" form before sending it with the original application, and I am asking my parents to redo it.
Do you think there might be a problem if the date of me accepting the appointment (section B) is slightly different from the original form? The date for parents signature in Section D will be the same, but I just do not remember which date I put under my signature.
