How old should the PCC be? Is 1-2 months old PCC acceptable. Couldn't find it on CIC website.

Thanks

Depends on which PCC you are talking about.

For Current country of residence PCC: No more than 6 months old at the time of filing.
For earlier visited countries: Any date after the last stay in that country. Valid indefinitely if not visited thereafter.

For the current country. So I guess Jan 2016 PCC should be fine. Thanks.

I am wondering "visiting" is actually matter. Aren't we safe as long as not "living" there again after PCC?
