How and where do I obtain PCC?

##In general, you and everyone in your family who is 18 years of age or over need to obtain a police certificate. You must obtain a police certificate from each country or territory where you have lived for six consecutive months or longer since reaching the age of 18.
In my case:
I applied all the PCC from SSP& DCP office and not from passport office expect from UK where I followed up with ACRO Police and send some documents as per their application form and fee involved.
1) PCC from Mohali(District)--SSP office --- SLA is 7-10 working days max after filling application..-- Got 2 PCC.One for Self and other for my Spouse
2) PCC from Haryana(GGN) where i worked for 2 years and stayed with my Spouse in 2009-2011--- Got 2 PCC. One for self and other for my Spouse
3) PCC from UK where is stayed in 2008 for more than 6 months -- Got PCC..One for self and ther for my Spouse...
4) PCC from Panchkula district (Haryana) -- Got PCC for my Spouse as she belong to this place and stayed with her parents after the age of 18--till got tied with me and shifted to Mohali....
In all the certificates it is categorically mentioned that we found no records in this district(Mohali/Panchkula/GGN) for the applied candidate.....and Certificate is valid for 6 months from Date of issue...
Read again:: You must obtain a police certificate from each country or territory where you have lived for six consecutive months or longer since reaching the age of 18.
To be on Safer side:: I also attached one cover letter addression CIO Nova scotia officer that "We were never involved and there is no case pending in any court INDIA/Abroad for myself and Spouse and signed that copy" and also mentioned all the adresses where in we stayed and got the PCC explaining the reason of stay.....
Let's see.....Fingers crossed..Waiting for 2nd AOR and inputs from NDVO..
Cheers,
Roxxane..
