No. You are not required to provide a Canadian PCC.

What do you mean by 'around one year'? It has to be exactly 1 year or more.

Yes, you should apply for a Canadian PCC from India because you were here for more than 6 months consecutively...

Not true. He (or anyone else) is not required to submit Canadian PCC.

Do I need to provide a Police Certificate with my Application for Permanent Residence? No

So essentially, you want him to wait until it is requested by IRCC because they will request one. He/she is currently in India and previously they worked in Canada for 1 year. It is mandatory that everyone who is applying for PR in Express Entry provide a PCC from every single country they have visited for 6 months, consecutively or not since the age of 18 years.

If our dear friend is applying for PR from India he/she will need to submit a Canadian PCC because:

1. He is no longer in Canada where the request could possibly be waived. Also, please be mindful that many applicants here in Canada have received a request for RCMP PCC.

2. The most obvious, he lived in Canada for 6+ months.

So while he is not required to submit one until a specific request for same has been issued, he will save himself a lot of time in processing by submitting one along with his complete application.

It is not mandatory to submit the Canada PCC upfront even if you are not living in Canada presently. I worked in Canada for 1 year and then moved back to India and applied for the PR from India. I did not submit any PCC for Canada. I received the PPR request last week and CIC never asked for my Canadian PCC. So it is not mandatory to submit it upfront. If required CIC will ask for it.

Sorry, this is all wrong.

IRCC automatically conducts name-based checks in Canada for ALL applicants. That is why PCCs from Canada are not required.

The only time a fingerprint-based RCMP check is required (on request only) is if the name-based check returns a criminal record. Then, fingerprints are required to determine whether the applicant is the same person or not.

If you have a common name, the potential for this happening is a bit higher.

Of course, it doesn't hurt to get it done, but it is most likely a waste of effort and money.

@DelPiero07 I came to Canada when I was 17 and only visited my home country once for two weeks, will I need to get police certificate from my home country ? Seeing that cic says you only need to get pcc from the country you have spent more than 6 months since the age of 18

You don't need one so you can upload a letter in the PCC placeholder stating the reason. That being said there have been cases where the processing officer asks for a police certificate even if the applicant only spent a few weeks in X country.
