Send it! why not?

The only reason I won't send, is like there's the probability of rejection and you won't get it back again. If so, and if getting PCC is difficult (which is the case in some countries, it takes even 1 year) keep it until they ask for it.

It purely depends on the country/ies where you have stayed for more than 6 months and should be getting the PCC. From some countries, you can get PCC very easily and quickly which solves the problem. But not in many others. So list down the countries from where you need to furnish PCC?

For example - If I am presently staying in Canada and need to provide Indian PCC, it is not too very time consuming so I will go ahead, get a PCC before hand and submit along with the application. Coz even if I need one at a later date (after one year), I can get it quickly from CGI / VFS.

Thanks Andy2109 for the response. I need PCC only for India which I already have.

Now that I have received my AOR, should I send the PCC without receiving the PCC request ? Will that create any problem ? ???
