4. Do I need to get copies of all immigration stamps on all old/new passports?
5. As I've taken Purolator dropoff service, do i need to send a return envelope?

To answer your question-
1. Photocopies suffice
2. To save you money. You can send multiple applications at once but they ask for a different shipping label for the return for each coz each PCC could take different time and that shouldnt hold off the other application.
3. No
4. All stamps and information pages for current passport only.
5. No. They will put your PCC in an envelop and send back
I have to give the address as per my passport which is my permanent address. The phone number I gave was of my cousin who doesn't live there. With my application, I even gave copy of my aadhar card. It is surprising that they need to verify my identity when I have given all the requested documents. I haven't lived at my permanent address for some time now. My relative address is not my permanent address and the requirement is that I have to give address as per my passport.Did you mean to say at the address you gave as permanent address and the corresponding phone number you gave, no one is available?
If that is the case, how are they supposed to verify your identity and process the police verification? You are supposed to provide a relatives address and phone number as permanent address where police and physically verify your identity, post which they issue the PCC.
There is no requirement that says you have to give address same as you passport.(last point on most recent checklist). You have to give an address where verification can happen, if it is same as your passport, all good. If not, then you have to provide the address proof for the permanent address. I provided my dad's aadhaar since my adress on passport was for a different city all together and they were okay with it. The fact that they have your documents but still need someone to attest to it/verify it is a little confusing to me as well but that's how the system works.I have to give the address as per my passport which is my permanent address.

Hi Guys,
Its been more than a week that my application states:"Police Verification has been initiated and a request has been sent to Indian Embassy/Consulate. PCC needs to be collected from the Indian Embassy/Consulate where the applicant applied after a 'Clear' Police Verification Report is received at the Indian Embassy/Consulate."
Police station confirmed that they have processed the file.Tried calling multiple times to the RPO office, no one picks the call or responds back over email. Dropped an email to CGI Toronto but havent heard back.
Appreciate if anyone can shed some light on what more can be done to receive traction on whether RPO has sent the file from their end or not. Its been more than a month for the entire process of PCC now!
Hi Nicck,Guys my file is under this status....
Police Verification has been initiated and a request has been sent to Indian Embassy/Consulate. PCC needs to be collected from the Indian Embassy/Consulate where the applicant applied after a 'Clear' Police Verification Report is received at the Indian Embassy/Consulate.”
Could anyone tell how long it take to be completed from this point?
And does this means its gone to my city police station or not?
