Is there anyone know the validity period of a police clearance certificate? I have a PCC in hand which was issued on May 8, 2019 at Dhaka, Bangladesh. I think i heard or read somewhere that PCC is only valid for six month. If i don't have to get a NEW PCC, i can submit all the requested document right the way.

If anyone know, please reply. you valuable input will be highly appreciated.

Thanks.

I think i found the answer of my own question.

"Police certificates
Police certificates for parents and grandparents applications are not required at the time you submit your complete application. Police certificates will be requested by the processing office for the person being sponsored and each family member 18 or older (who are not already Canadian citizens or permanent residents) later in the application process.

You don’t need police certificates when you submit your complete application. We ask you for police certificates for the person being sponsored and each family member 18 or older (who aren’t already Canadian citizens or permanent residents) later in the application process.

Police certificates are generally valid for 1 year from the date they’re issued. Depending on processing times, we may ask you for new certificates.

See how to get a police certificate for up-to-date information about obtaining a police certificate from any country."

Boilerplate email regarding PCC, Travel History, and other stuffs

One question - My mother already submitted Travel History (IMM5562) and full color scan of her passport in the original package.
Does she need to provide those again?
If not, then I'll tell her only to prepare PCC and CV.

Thanks :)
I think only PCC and CV are enough in this case. That email is generic email from CPC-M.

Update on our flag-pole experience

Yesterday, my parents successfully landed at the Douglas Crossing here in BC. We drove to arrive to the US border shortly after lunch -- usually humans are slightly happier after they eat. There was no lineup - I obviously consulted travel.gc.ca for border wait times before we left home.

I told the CBP officer at the booth that I was accompanying my parents to do a flag-pole for Canadian immigration. He nodded, gave us the orange slip with a lane number and the comment 'Use flagpole' written on it to present to the CBP officer in the main office, and, to my question whether this administrative refusal would have an impact on my nexus as well as on my parents' future US visit endeavors, he replied 'Not at all'. There was no significant lineup in the main office -- we were out in about 15 minutes.

On the Canadian side, we had the most pleasant experience ever. The booth officer, within a matter of one minute, handed us the yellow slip with the lineup zone and we went in after being directed where to park. There was no lineup at all in the zone allocated to us and we immediately saw a CBSA officer. They were very friendly and very welcoming. After initialing and signing the COPRs, they welcomed my parents to Canada telling them the PR cards would take up to eight weeks to be mailed, and wished us godspeed, as it were.

(Make sure you do the flagpole when it's pouring and windy -- everybody likes working inside...)

All the best everyone!
Two days ago we received the PR cards. Took about two weeks. All the best everyone!

How long is my police certificate good for?
For the country or territory where you currently live, the certificate cannot be older than 6 months from the day you apply.

For any other country or territory where you’ve stayed for 6 or more months in a row, the certificate must have been issued after you left. You can use the certificate for your IEC application as long as you haven’t gone back to that country or territory.

If your police certificate doesn’t have an expiry date or document number
If your police certificate doesn’t have an expiry date, select a day that’s at least 1 year after the date it was issued. It doesn’t have to be exactly 1 year after.

If your police certificate doesn’t have a document number, type N/A in the field.

If you can’t get one in time
If you can’t get a police certificate before the deadline to submit your application, you can upload:

  • a copy of the receipt to prove you’ve applied for one or
  • a screenshot of the confirmation page or email you got when you ordered your police certificate online
An officer will send you a request letter in your account to ask for your police certificate later on. You must give us the certificate by the deadline shown in the request letter or your application will be refused.
