Dear experts, I have a unique situation. My wife is in India and I am in US. She is coming to US in last week of June. Now I am going to apply for FBI PCC here in US for me. I am confused about applying the same for my wife, will it work out if I ask my wife to complete the FD-258 card with her fingerprints taken in India and FEDEX it to me and I will send it to FBI office.

Since she will be coming to US on June last week, would that create any issue on the validity of the FBI PCC when I submit my final express entry application?

Thanks in advance.

Your wife only needs FBI inquiry if she has stayed for 180 days (6 months) in the USA. If that is the case, you can go ahead and ask her to mail the fingerprints to you and proceed further.

If your wife has been or will be in US for more than 180 days, she will need the PCC. But the PCC will be valid or not will depend on her plan. Is she going to stay in US after you get the FBI PCC? If she stays there and you submit your eAPR during that time, the PCC will be valid.
