As long as your IELTS is valid, you may submit your application. Preferably, don't delay your submission until after it's expiry if you have scored better than your newer IELTS. No need to detail your schooling details, except maybe in your personal history. In your education, only provide...

Hi. I got the exact same disappointing letter too... after almost two years of waiting, I got my ITA, only to get my application rejected due to the same reason of my PCC not covering an earlier period. CIC outright rejected my entire application, when I could have easily arranged for a new PCC...

Hey Anford. Thanks a lot for the reassurance. I intend to submit the same medicals again.

What I know is what CIC has mentioned in their letter of rejection to me. It says that my application is incomplete because I have not provided a PCC covering a previous stay of over six months in India after I turned 18.

Hi Anford, I am in your position now. My application was rejected in April. However, fortunately I obtained an ITA in June and am in the process of updating my documents. I have retaken my IELTS test, obtained new police certificates for my husband and myself. As I am presently unemployed, my...

Hi. I am currently in this exact situation. My IELTS results expired after I obtained an ITA. However, I have re-taken my IELTS now and am awaiting my results in a few days. In case I manage to score the same IELTS band (8, in my case), shall I simply upload my new IELTS result in my EE profile...

Thanks a lot. I gave my IELTS yesterday. Hopefully I will get a good score this time too.

Ok. Thanks a lot. I shall try my best to score the same or a higher score in my IELTS this time. I hope they will accept my letter of explanation too.

My score has apparently expired. I still have 60+ days to submit my application. Are you saying I must decline my ITA and wait to obtain a new ITA altogether after getting my new IELTS score??

Thank you, Lailina. I have registered for a new IELTS test for the coming week. And once I get my test results, how and where do I update or inform CIC of my new test result? As I am in the process of uploading each of my document in my Express Entry profile after receiving my ITA, there is no...

Hi. I have obtained an ITA and am in the process of gathering my documents for submission. I still have around 60+ days remaining to submit my final application. Meanwhile, my IELTS score has expired. But, it was on the basis of my existing IELTS score that I obtained my ITA. Now that I have...

Hi. It says the photo should not be older than 6 months. Suppose I have taken my photo on 4th of Feb 2017, can I still use it to apply now (July 14th 2017)?

I think if you can obtain a PCC from India for the total period of your stay there, it will suffice. My husband has got his stamped in his passport like that, without specifying any dates (from / to). But do clarify it with someone knowledgeable.

I have been in and out of India for studies and work. I am presently in Oman. I turned 18 in 2003. I was back in India for my MBA for two years in 2006 and back again to Oman in 2009. Then I got back again to India in 2015, and returned to Oman in April 2017. I got my Indian PCC just before i...

Yes. I am presently in Oman. Been back and forth for studies and work. I turned 18 in 2003. The issue occurred only because the cops mentioned the dates in my PCC. In case of my husband's PCC, he only got it stamped in his passport without the mention of any specific dates / years. That's all...

My application got refused at the last minute due to a PCC issue. I was supposed to provide one for my stay in India back in 2006-2008 too, which slipped my mind...instead, it was mentioned "2015 till present" in my PCC. I am devastated. I got a refusal email for incomplete application. I tried...

Thank you.

Thanks. i have re-applied. Awaiting an ITA and thats when it seems to be taking ages for them to conduct a draw! I'm losing hopes...I intend to apply for my Indian PCC soon. It shouldnt take much time either.

My application got refused too at the last minute due to a PCC issue. I was supposed to provide one for my stay in India back in 2006-2008 too, which slipped my mind.....I am devastated. What measures did you take once you got the refusal email? Did you reapply and wait for an ITA? Or anything...

It just says that my application has been refused because my police certificate does not cover the period 2006-2008.
