Seems like you are very well placed in government service in India. Why would you want to immigrate to Canada?

I KNOW I am opening a big can of worms here

You know you are a desi when ........ You spew forth the virtues of India, but don't want to live there...............You've never had a tanning salon membership

Thanks for the guidance provided!!!

Thanks for letting us know your position.
To clarify :
1. I only gave bribe to get the PCC and am not advising any one else to do the same
2. Informed decision to immigrate is your choice and we CD's donot want to influence your decision in any way.
3. Please donot clutter your quries on the same subject / topic under various topics. Keep it in one thread.

Now for your points :
You will not need a NOC for getting a PCC even if you are a govt. employee. An NOC is needed only when you are flying out of the country (when you still are a govt. servant). Sometimes the passport office asks that it will take 3 months to give you a PCC as the passport must be sent to the police station (by the passport office) and then they will wait for it to come before intimating you to come and collect it. This happens when your PCC is not on file when they issued you the passport. On the other hand, you can talk with the police commisionar in your area (now they have a min. designation under which you should obtain the PCC and not any police official) and ask him to issue you a PCC. If this fails, send an affidavit.
You can request the CIC to delay sending your visa and I am not sure as to how long they can delay it. You could have delayed the visa much more prior to you having given the medicals. Giving your medicals around the last day possible.
I hope that you are aware that you should RESIGN from your govt. post (and the govt should accept your resignation- thus reliving you of your bond) before you can fly to Canada. If not, I am sure that you are aware that a Police Enquiry will be constituted to probe your disapearance from your govt. post and you can be deported from Canada to face prosecution in India. Therefore, Please do the needful that the Govt. accepts your resignation before you fly out.
All the best in your endeavours and welcome to the land of ice and Tim Hortons where the streets are paved in black gold and almost everyone drives around in Cars. A land where breakfast (2 scarambled eggs, 2 small sausages, potato wedges, 1 Crossoint before 11 am in IKEA) is sold for $1.13 (Rs. 50) and where you get free coffee and cinamon bun's and other goodies during festival times.

Best way is to explain your situation to your boss that this NOC is just to get visa only(trust them that you will be back to india as you are bondable), tell them once you get PR, then you can take 2 weeks vacation , come to canada e apply PR, etc and then fly back.

Thanks a lot

Reg PCC requirement.Clarification needed
PCC requirement
My problem is that I was sent by the govt for higher studies to US in April 2008 and there is a bond executed with respect to that, I never anticipated that CIC would process my appln as I had lodged the file in 2003, and meanwhile there has been lots of changes and I have done MBA in collaboration with US university. So keeping all this in mind the govt may not give me NOC to get PCC and also there will be difficulty in leaving my job.

Can I ask the CIC to with hold my appln for a year or so, so that I am able to ease out my way from the dept. and have no problems also. My son is in his 3rd year of engineering and that too would be a problem to shift now.

I am in senior mgmt position so I cannot give bribes and go the wrong way,Mr Tamilkuravan's way seems to be good, but I do not want my employer to know about my application too.
Any other suggestions??
Thanks in advance

Can you not be a little courteous to the Respondents on this Canadian Desi web site. You have posted three such requests in succession firing at us the same query, trying to get some information about the Police Clearance Certificate. (May be you clicked on the wrong button)

Let me sit down in a cool place and stay there calm and collected and put on my thinking cap and see.... Do I have these already... have I done this before... how did I do this the last time..... Where am I now?........ how can I get all of these done sitting 10,000 miles away in a foreign land?...... Do I have friends back home who will help me there with this small problem that I have here in the USA?.....

You did reside in India, and you did receive your passport that was issued to you more than six months prior to visa application. You lived in another country for at least 12 months after the age of 16. Then, you need a clearance from the local FBI and State Police also.

WHEN YOU GOT YOUR U.S. VISA, you did get all of these done, ONCE BEFORE, prior to April 2008, for the US Visa.

You would have had all of these completed prior to April 2008. YOU ALREADY HAVE THE COPIES OF ALL OF THESE WITH YOU. Your employer must have issued to you a NOC or help you get these without any issue. HOW?

You would have had, A
1. Police clearance certificate from the passport office that issued your passport. (In India) Also this you can obtain this from the Canadian Embassy in the USA.

2. Police clearance certificate from the district police office serving your place of residence. ( There in India)

3. Police clearance certificates, if obtainable, for all countries other than India where you have lived for over one year after turning 16.

You have these prior to the issue of the VISA to the United States.

Please check your files and the application for the issue of the Visa to USA. What happened to them?
Now, all you need to do is submit them, together with the LOCAL FBI and State Police Clearance Certificates for any of your current needs. You get those from USA, where you are currently residing. RIGHT?

Can you answer to any of the above, just for yourself. We don't need any response and get another thread started on the same topic.
