Hello folks!

I am in the process of applying my citizenship application, and need some help on the PCC requirement.

I came to Canada on May 2019 on Work Permit, left Canada to India on Dec 2020, applied for PR from India (PCC submitted for PR), and came on Dec 2021 after getting my PR. Since then I have gone to India on 2 occasions, one for 2 weeks in 2022 and one for 1 month in 2023.

After becoming PR, I haven't lived anywhere for more than 1month, but if you consider for the past 4yrs then I was in my country of origin for about a year.

Do I need to submit the PCC in this case? Please help answering.

Thanks

You don't need PCC. You can specify in the application that you already provided PCC for PR.

Thank you! I was not sure since I am using some days before my PR for 1095 days. And, I was in India in between for a year but not after I got my PR.
