really ?? well they asked for my police clearance report before .. in the month of June 2017 .. i already submitted it .. they wanted me to post it to colombo high commission & i sent my original police clearance to them by courier ..As long as you are not requested for police clearance it's fine .because medical usually passes within 3 days.
In my case I was requested for medical+police clearance,even though I was able to submit it in a wk they take time to verify the clearance.so I'm still waiting for PPR more than a month.everything depends,we can't predict anything .anyways goodluck 2u.
