You mean Security Check (IP2) it can take few days to few weeks time depending on risk an applicant impose.
Some applicants are selected for Security Screening and this can take anything from 6 months to more than a year.
I hope this will help.

For Valid Job offer means an employer is registered and authorise to sponsor an applicant. In most of the cases CIC will call that employer to confirm details or take a written confirmation. It is very unlikely that they will just skim through.
In addition, for Job Offer it needs to pass the Eligibility Test that itself requires a confirmation from Employer and also that it meets the criteria mentioned by the CIC.
The job doesn't need to be Permanent however it should be valid at least for 1 year from the time PR is issued. The job cannot be based on a project, a short term contract, or seasonal.
I hope this will help.
@BillHyatt : Could you confirm this? the PCC requirement that it be issued post your last visit to the country is NOT APPLICABLE when the PCC is from the country of residence. The only requirement is that it must be less than 6 months old.
(i.e. one can travel post such a PCC issuance and it wouldn't become invalid when application is submitted).

Can you please help me out with my PCC query. I am applying from Pakistan, here the PCC is issued by the local police of the city and they mention the address along with the dates on the PCC.
I have lived across three different cities in Pakistan for study and work over the span of last ten years and have mentioned these details in the personal history section. I haven't left Pakistan ever. The PCC certificate that i have got is from my hometown which states that i have lived in this city on XYZ address from birth till date without any criminal record.
Is this one PCC certificate enough for my application covering the last ten years ?
The other way is to visit police station in each city where i have lived and ask them to give me certificates for those address with timespan mentioned on them ? This way I will be submitting three certificates from three cities .This path is somehow trouble some and difficult to get.

In my case, I received the letter of nomination (Confirmation de Désignation) with a mistake in it : the coutry of residence. (the package was luckily redirected to me after a phone call by UPS), I received it by mid August
I immediatly emailed OINP , informing them of the mistake and mentioning that I will be submitting eAPR by mid September hoping that this mistake would not handicap my eAPR application.
then they replied asking me to send back the letter to OINP, that they will " 'evaluate the query, then send back the letter to my adress' "
I submitted eAPR without the letter of nomination (even if I have a copy of the one received and sent back) and included schedule4.
today I emailed OINP telling them that I submitted eAPR, and sent back the letter by the 28thAug.
that was my UNLUCKY MISTAKE adventure , hope it never happens again.
good luck to you Dev1603
Yes, the rule for the country of residence is that it shouldn’t be issued before 6 months and should be issued before you leave. By leave they mean for travelling and not moved permanently.
I hope this will help.
Sorry, I am confused @BillHyatt. Are you saying while ithe PCC from country of residence needs to be dated within 6 months, it is NOT fine to travel after its issuance before AOR? I thought there was no comment about travel/leave at all among instructions for country of residence PCC.
Thanks
Schedule 4 is a Provincial Nomination Details which isn’t required for Express Entry applicants as it is already present online. However, I can understand why he decided to go with.
It is not required to attach Nomination Certificates during E-APR however it is recommended.
If you are travelling outside country of residence after PCC was issued it is fine. However, if you left that country permanently then it will become invalid and new one is needed to be issued once you left it.
I hope this will clear your doubts.
That clears it. Of course, if one leaves a country permanently (thus changing the country of residence), the conditions applicable to country of residence PCC would no longer apply. One would have to get a PCC received after the date of permanent departure.
Thanks.
For your country applicants have suggested to get from each city you lived for more than 6 months. However, it was brought to notice that they don’t issue PCC if you aren’t a permanent residence of that city.
So, one of the applicant suggested to get a PCC from Hometown (Permanent Residence), and once you receive that PCC you can apply with other stations as well by attaching a copy of that PCC.
I hope this will help.
