People who applied for PCC in Indan Consulate SFO having passports made in India

[CanadaPR90]

Hi,

I have 2 queries:

1- I have sent my application to CIO in 1st week of April and after reading many posts that FBI takes lot of time, I sent my fingerprints to FBI as well recently.
My passport was made in India only.Request you to please clarify - if anyone has applied/received PCC from Indian consulate in last 2-3 months, then how much time they are taking on an average...?

From this forum, it seems CIO takes 2-3 months of processing...On the Indian embassy site, it says 30 days so considering this I am planning to apply in May end or June to Indian consulate

If anyone has difference experience and took lot of time, please share so that I can apply asap....so that I won't face any issue of delay if I need to send documents to local visa office later....

2- On the site on Indian Consulate SFO, under supporting documents, it is written that for "Proof of Residence: Driving license, or PG&E, Water or landline telephone bill displaying applicant’s address, House Lease Agreemen, Bank/credit card/mobile phone statements are not accepted as residence proof. "

- PG&E is mentioned as one e.g. which is in US.......so we need to take US address or Indian address proof ?

- We need to take only one proof out of the ones mentioned above ?

- I came to US after few days of marriage only from India so I don't have any proof in my name of my husband's permanent address in India ? Can I take marriage certificate which shows Indian address. Please suggest ?


Thanks,

If i Go to Consulate office San Francisco to apply for PCC, do they submit my original passport and keep it with them? I need to travel after 10 days of submitting this application.
Someone said if you want to pick up the PCC yourself once its done, then you don't have to submit the original Passport to them. Does anyone know anything about it?
