SEEKING HELP FROM YOU ALL
??? ??? ??? ???
Dear Friends from India (NDVO), I need your help! I have received my PER on 18th Nov,2014 and now awaiting the Medical request and police check request from New Delhi visa office. I started the process of PCC too but facing a small problem. I am staying on rent at ahmedabad for last 2.5 years and address on the passport is different(Though its of Gujarat only). The Passport officer at Vijay char rasta Passport Seva Kendra,ahmedabad is not accepting my application as the address on the passport is different. he is asking me to re-issue passport with the address where i am currently residing and then apply for PCC. I have my own doubts whether I should re-issue passport as the same has already been submitted to CIC. I have already visited this PSK twice and passport officer is not helpful at all. 1) Do you think that I should try another PSK in ahmedabad to get PCC. Now there is a bigger question:
On the CIC website they have mentioned that the police certificate is required. Exact words are "For districts other than the Punjab:
Applicants should contact the local Senior Superintendent of Police/ Superintendent of Police/ Commissioner or Deputy Commissioner of Police, the Additional Commissioner of Police, or the Station House Officer (Police clearance certificate issued by the Regional Passport Office are also acceptable."
My question is whether this is recommended that I instead of trying to get PCC from Passport seva kendra, I get the same from police commissioner's office. I spoke to local police here and got to know that what they issue is 'Police verification certificate" and that they can issue for my last 2.5 years stay here.What they need is the reason for the issue of Police verification certificate.(Which I can only provide once i receive the mail from new delhi visa office so I will have to wait till then) I am utterly confused. i am awaiting the Medical request and Police check request hopefully by 1st week of Jan and I wished to get the police verification done earlier to avoid last minute running around. Please guide me with information that you have. Thanks a lot in advance God Bless.
