Hi,
Below are my details :
NOC : 2241
Appl. recd date : 13-Nov-14
PER recd date : 04-Feb-15
AOR recd date : 26-Feb-15
VO : Warsaw, Poland
Awaiting MR
1. I am the principal applicant, and my wife has been a joint applicant as I accrued 67 points with addition of my wife's IELTS exam score.
2. I have worked for more than 6 months in India, Ghana and US. So my understanding is that I will need PCC from India, Ghana and the US. Currently I am working in India. I also understand from the fellow members in this forum that for the US, FBI clearance is required and it takes normally 4 months from the date of application received. I am expecting MR during 2nd or 3rd week of May-2015. Do I need to start the FBI clearance process now or should I wait. I have applied through a lawyer and lawyer told me not to do so. However, looking at the amount of time taken by FBI, I felt to check in the forum whether I should start the process right away or should I wait for the CIC intimation to get the PCC done. How long is the FBI PCC valid ?
3. Do I need PCC for both me and my wife or only mine ?
4. Does CIC send any special letter that needs to be attached alongwith the FBI PCC request ? In that case, I will have to wait for the CIC intimation for FBI PCC.
Can someone please advise as I am really confused ?
Thanks.
