Sorry you had a bad experience. Hopefully it gets approved quickly after sending docs. You said you were in Canada for 3.7 years. When you entered Canada 3.7 years ago , had you stayed 6 months in a row? I understand within the 4 years you could only have stayed for only 3 months. But when the entry happened, it is possible for some people to have stayed 6 months plus. Some officers may ask a pcc in such cases.

Yes, it was probably due to that. before the current 3.7 years and after obtaining PR, I was in home country longer than 6 months and I think they wanted to see the PCC for the duration. The application wording could have been better.

Assuming you did not move immediately after getting PR? Technically they are not supposed to ask PCC if its less than 6 months in past 4 years/ if in same country where you applied PR from, but they can if it amounted to 6 months when you entered. I had not moved immediately after PR either. And i provided PCC for this very reason. I had added in explanation letter and just mentioned that it was there if needed. Dont worry, its only a matter of time.
