Thanks a lot.

I am wondering if you help me on:
  • what is GCMS?
  • when is appropriate to request for GCMS?
  • Could you refer me a link that I can read about it?

Isnt this telling the fingerprints thing needed? I dont think thats the issue here. For checking reliability of PCC and additional screening the checks are done by sending them to the original countries. Thats how long it takes for the checks to be completed.
Hi Sharu,

The Ottawa office has asked me for PCC and Fingerprint from RCMP. I just revieved the PCC from India but don't have the RCMP report yet..
Shall I send the PCC right away and send the Fingerprint report when I get it or shall I wait for Fingerprint and send it all together,,,
I am an AINP nominee and filed on feb 06, 2012... the Ecas went In process on Sep 26, 2012 and I recieved this PCC request the same day..

Please Advice..

Thank you for the help and for running the forum...

There was no possibility for medical redone for them.
For them it was exactly one year plus few days. Medical redone would extend their PPR by few months.

You can send the PCC now and do the fingerprints asap. I think with the electronic version now, it shouldnt be too far. When you get your fingerprints done, ask them if they will send it to you or directly to ottawa. Give about a month after that, ask ottawa if they received it or get GCMS to ensure everything is in order.

Hope this helps

Agreed! You can get them to send it to you or them send it to ottawa and to have better control its better if they send it to you!

I wonder if they are going by the medical expiry date? If yours have recently expired you are first in line - reason it can only be extended for 3 months and they dont want to create more work. Therefore, I dont think they can issue re medical for sept applicants. Having said that, 2011 applicants the least medical date would be december 2011, so max we should be done by march 2013?

Hello there everyone ;D

Can somebody enlighten me with my dilemma. I am Planning to go home this december first week and currently my status is "medical recieved on ecas". I am planning for a 5 months off for medical purposes and vacation and is it ok if I will just wait for the PPR outside Canada? Since I have a representative here in Canada to send on my behalf. and she's just gonna send the PP and other Doc to me. And by that time I will enter again Canada for final Landing. Is that going to be OK? . Please can somebody gives me a heads up with this.
