Can you please tell us why did they request additional PCC because in past they have been rejecting applications because of missing PCC?
 
Yes, this is a very very good question. I also see a lot of people who reported rejections due to missing PCC. bratsche, did you use a letter of explanation to show that you tried your best effort to obtain the missing PCC?

Thanks a lot and best luck with you application.

I don't know if we are the case that you're wondering about. We got request for PCC for the years that we lived in Canada, going to get our fingerprint scanned tomorrow~

I was interested in finding out about @bratsche case but thanks anyway. I know that that for Canada it is not a required document and therefore if you don't submit it with your application it is fine although they may ask for it later on. I guess it may be the same case for bratsche.

Many countries require a letter from CIC to provide a PCC. I received the letter from CIC after AOR and used that letter to obtain a PCC.
 
Current Processing Time- 56 Days?!

Hi

I got my AOR a week back.

I noticed the PR processing time used to be 150-180 days back in December, January. And now it shows 56 days! Besides the one person applying from UK, has anyone seen such a quick turnover?

FYI: EE Inland

Sadly, that is only for the physical card once you land.

It is still listed as 6 months on that page for the PR processing time.

Same page, you just need to answer the questions differently.

For 'what are you applying for' - economic class
For 'which economic class' - whatever applies to you (CEC/Skilled Workers etc)
