Hello People,

I am an Indian working in Canada for past two years and have a full time permanent skilled LMIA approved job (NOC A). I have a 2 years old Police Clearance Certificate from India, would it still be valid for Permanent Residency application as I have never been outside of Canada for more six months?
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
DayDreamer

I would suggest you to apply with PCC letter you have without any unnecesarry LOE as it is clearly mentioned on their website:

For any other country
For any other country, the police certificate must be issued after the last time you stayed there for 6 months or more in a row.

Some countries put expiry dates on their police certificates. If you have a police certificate that expired, include it. We’ll accept it if:

  • it was issued after the last time you stayed there for 6 months or more in a row
  • it is not for the country where you currently live
They are very well aware of current situation and I strongly believe they would not ask for a new one. They have all your's travel history details recorded in the system. Even if they would require from you they would communicate to you.
