    India PCC from Toronto

    If you log in to the PSK site, you can track it there. You do not have to type in any numbers. This is the same site you used to create your PCC webform. Once you log in and wait a few seconds, the pending application comes in a table at the bottom and there is a button for track Application status.

    India PCC from Toronto

    Thanks for your reply. I did that and it says "No Records Found". It has been 1 week since the package was delivered at BLS Brampton (9-Jan). Is this normal for them to take this long to update it ? Should I be concerned ? Is there anyone else who has submitted the application on 9-Jan ?

    Chance of RQ due to unemployment

    Thanks a lot @Seym. This reply indeed did put my mind to ease. I hope there is nothing wrong in pre-empting the RQ. We can upload stuff like bank statements, OHIP history etc. along with that letter you mentioned. Is pre-empting a good idea or do you recommend we take a chance and submit as-is.

    Letter from CRA for proof of residency for CTB

    @canuck78 , this is a excerpt from your previous post which is true in my case. My wife went to the doctor only occasionally and there are large gaps between visits. Will this be a red flag ? Can her bank statements alone cover this part ?
