Hi sherych, is it 60 days from the day you get your AOR or what is the reference date. Also when you submitted your application package, did you include a letter explaining the reasons why you are not submitting it along with the original app and will send later?
sorry for replying so late.
No it wasn't from the date of AOR,
in the application checklist it says that you don't have to submit PCCs right away, at least it said, but check the 'document checklist' that is most current.
What you need is have those PCCs ready, because you can be asked to submit them. I was asked to do so in November, while I applied in late May and got my AOR in late September.
I think until they really start to process your case they will not ask for it.
In my case I was asked to submit my PCCs and CIC said they need it in order to continue processing my application.
As for wait or not, can't give you an advice. I didn't want to wait, I had the documents ready and I submitted my application. Later I submitted the PCCs when I was asked to do so.
They gave me 60 days, which in the end was enough. I got all my PCCs in about 20 days.
hope this helps, good luck
