PCC for Spousal

[Vivek88]

Hello,

My wife got an ITA for Express Entry and she is preparing to upload documents to apply through CEC. I already have a PR status and currently working in Canada (got my PR in 2018). CIC has asked us to upload my PCC document as part of her application.

The question is, can I send them the PCC document i received when I had applied for my PR (got my PCC on 28/06/2017) or should I get a new one from the embassy?

A response would be appreciated

Thank you

I would say get a new one. They are only generally only valid for a year.

No no no.... if you are already a PR, you should not be a co-applicant on her application. You should be listed as non-accompanying, and then where the system asks for your PCCs and medical, she simply uploads a letter of explanation statement that you are already a PR and include a scan of your PR card...
