Did you sen any self addressed envelope or you just paid the return courier fees?For all those eagerly awaiting their PCC from India. Sharing my timeline:
23 April - Mailed PCC Documents via Purolator to BLS Brampton
24 April - Delivered to BLS Brampton
08 May - I was able to track the my file on the BLS website for the first time
10 May - Forwarded to Consulate General of India (CGI) Toronto
25 May - Received email notification from CGI that my request has been sent to the local police station in India for verification
26 May - 5 June - Followed up with local police station, district police station as well as send numerous email to CGI enquiring status. FYI, district police station first gave an alibi that it will be delayed as result of covid 19, said they didn't receive any request from CGI and then blamed on some server issue. Meanwhile CGI said they are awaiting a response from the local police station which could take three weeks after which it would my responsibility to follow up (SMH!). My family in India kept pursuing and following up with the district and local police station until a physical police verification was conducted. It helps to know someone at the PS, at least they will appreciate the urgency of the request.
5 June - Physical police verification in India, visited my home, took copy of passport, photo id etc.
8 June - PCC processed and sent back to BLS
9 June - PCC mailed by BLS to my address
10 June - Received PCC at my address
FYI, I had applied for two PCC's and I only received one. In addition to putting me through such inefficient and lengthy process they didn't have the basic common sense of processing two copies, despite of me having sent two applications and paid for both. I sent a follow up email to CGI as well called up BLS (not even sure what their purpose is other than cause delays in what is already an inefficient process), I hope they send the second one soon, because all they had to do was print a second copy for the jurisdiction I requested.

I emailed the Indian Consulate seeking approval to process my PCC. Is there a better way to get approval from the consulate? Any input is appreciated. Cheers!Since you do not have a valid status in Canada, please contact the Consulate via email and discuss your case. Please seek for approval and share the approval mail with us.
Can you please provide me the contact details for consulate general and BLS. I have to update my information.Hi Everyone,

It didn't change after police verification, it only changed once it was mailed to BLS.Congratulations!Good to hear that someone finally got their PCC. Question for you:
Did your “Processing at Consulate” status changed after police verification or it remained the same?
