Put 0000 as the date. You have to respond to the request nd not leave it blank until it expires. Put a dummy date and upload your letter of explanation. Did you even try sending a CSE?
Hi Anya,
Thank you and congrats on your PPR. You and Deccan have been one of the most helpful in this forum.
I wish it were that simple. The form to fill in order to proceed to PCC upload is as follows:-
- Name of Certificate
- Number of Certificate
- Issuing Country
- Date of Issue : A slot for days/ month/ year
- Date of Expiry:A slot for days/ month/ year
Now I could fill these with random information as you said and proceed to the next page to upload the file (in this case an LOE and supporting entry/exit stamps on my old passport0 but wouldn't that be misrepresentation? As for the CSE , I sent one with supporting docs on Oct. 7th. followed that with two letters to "technical difficulties' as advised by one of the call center agents who said that they are fast and will answer within a couple of hours. And this was on Oct. 8...still haven't heard from them.
And here is another fun fact. The letter I received asking for the PCC was on Sept. 30. In that letter I was also asked to provide another document and was given until oct. 7th to do (that document was uploaded same day). Now as soon as I uploaded the requested doc due on on Oct. 7 the due date of the other document -PCC-(which in the request letter was the 20 of October) suddenly became 7th of Oct. You can imagine my panic. Tried calling many many times until I found an agent who was willing to open the file and see for himself. He understood it was a mistake but said that he didn't have the authority to change it....go figure...to me, dear Anya, it is looking more and more like a mechanical process....the software isn't working, had lots of bugs and is illogical on many occasions but no one is willing to do anything about it.
