That's exactly what I don't understand!
Yes, we did provide police certificates along with our application.
Actually there is something you can do, I did it about 4 months ago and I got my PCC in a week.
send the scan of your current PCC letter to your family, ask them to go to the police department (NOT Police +10) and ask them to retrieve your finger print and issue another PCC letter for you. it actually should take about a week

This is amazing Dani1982!!
Can I ask in which city you did it? Tehran?
My hometown is Ahwaz, hopefully it works there too.

And also, what do you exactly mean by police department? :)

Guys! I've just received the document request email for a bank statement and a police certificate, finally. I had gotten a PCC in the last visit from my country on May 2012. I think, since nothing is mentioned about expiry date on the PCC and also its issue date is after the application date, it would be OK. What do you think buddies?

Congrat! Should be okay since PCCs are valid for 1 year from the date of issue according to the CIC website. Apparently, they are quickly moving and already have started processing mid January applications. I would expect receiving something within 2 month.

Hi guys, I have also been asked to submit banking history and proof of funds. This has become fairly routine now. Nothing to do with the applicants nationality. I have been given 30 days time to respond.

I need some advice. I am short of the required 11K amount by about 3k. I had loaned my brother 2.5 K in december and he is also in Canada. So we have bank transaction records. I am planning to ask him for the money, which he will return. I hope this doesn't count as a "sketchy" deal when I show CIC my proof of funds. What do you guys think?

If you are from Tehran, what the address is for the police department? Is it the one located in "pole choobi"?

I have a question. In the Doc. request email they have mentioned:

- "Proof of funds: Please provide evidence of funds which are completely available, transferrable and unencumbered by debt or other obligations. Evidence of account activity for the past six months must also be submitted."

I was wondering if the six months bank statement is enough? What does the first part mean? (evidence of ...)

by proof of funds i believe they mean the letter from your bank stating that so and so has a savings bank acct with this branch sinc XX date and as of today the current balance is XXCDN$...alternatively, if you are using fixed deposit receipts, i guess those would be considered proof of funds provided they bear your name, the date the fixed deposit was put and the term of the fixed deposit...

Balance and account history for the last 6 month.
