Hi all
Is it necessary to repeat PCC because I did my PCC in 3 years back from india . How long PCC is valid?
CIC asked me to repeat Medical because I did my medical 3 years back. So do you think they may ask me to repeat PCC as well?
Thank you inadvance.

In my opinion u have to submit ur PCC again when they ask for it because PCC is valid only for one year and you submitted three years ago... hope that helps

Thanx Taurus for your reply.
But could you please tell me where it is mention that it is valid for 1 year.
On cic site they just stated that "The certificate must be issued no more than three months before you apply."

Your PCC has expired. You will need to get a new one once CIC requests it.

You are correct - the PCC must be received by CIC within three months of being issued. Once CIC receives the PCC, it is valid for one year.
