Hi friends
Please share information about this
The Indian police clearance! No one here had shared anything black and white about it here! How many days it took for you guys to get it if you are Indians living in middle-east?
I went and applied on the same day I received ITA. I thought I am on time. It was only after going there I was taken aback, for they told me they have absolutely no idea when I will be able to get it!! And the slip given to track reads in bold letters "Delivery Date: MINIMUM FORTY WORKING DAYS FROM DATE OF SUBMISSION"
Minimum 40 working days is 60 calendar days!
In the worst case scenario if I cant get it before 60 days what can I do? I have to plead CIC, I know, but there must be a better effective way of letting CIC know the issue at hand so that they might consider an extension or something.
Friends who know more about this or been here yourself kindly shed some light please.,
Well., I can't thank all of you here enough, I really feel like a brotherly community!
Please do say a word or two about the things I mentioned, I feel a bit desperate.,
Bye

Here is my personal experience(not in the middle east but overseas neverthelesss):
I applied through BLS for PCC for myself and my wife. I received my PCC within 4-5 working days but there was no update for PCC for my wife. After chasing the High Commission for few days, they informed that since they have not received any reply from the RPO in India, they cannot issue the PCC.
We tried calling and emailing the RPO but nothing worked.
My wife had to personally go to the RPO and talk to the concerned officer. Now the real issue was that the RPO had already replied to the High Commission, but they were using an old email ID in their database which was no longer being used by the High commission (Yes I know, normal people reply to the email ID that the email is received from).
So she gave the correct ID to the concerned person and they replied back with the details. I immediately received a call from the HC that the information has been received and you can collect the PCC. Till the time this happened, my wife was camping in India.
I would suggest that you wait for some time, but when it seems that there is no outcome, demand to speak to the officer concerned in the HC and he /she will guide you as to what is the real issue and what can be done.
Hope this helps you.
