zakon Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) Hi, visa type: subclass 189 (Skilled - Independent (SI 189)) Today after quite a wait, a CO has contacted me asking for Overseas Police Clearance - National. The strange thing is that the same scanned document has been attached on Elodgment profile page about 3 weeks back! On my profile page the status of this particular document has changed from Required to Requested. I plan to mail them the same scanned copy of the Overseas Police Clearance - National (PCC) but before that would like to know if anyone has gone through a similar incident. Thanks and regards Ambar ACS: 11th April 2014 | IELTS: 30th May 2014; L:8,R:7,S:7,W:7,O:7.5 | EOI filed: 4th June 2014 | Invite: 23rd June 2014 | Applied: 30th June | Medical: 11th August 2014 | PCC: 5th September 2014 Edited September 26, 2014 by zakon Removd unwanted header Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osfarooq Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) May i know which country's PCC is that? I am asking because i had almost the same experience with PCC. I had uploaded PCC upfront and CO still requested it. My agent asked for clarification as the same was provided already, CO replied that the PCC already provided was issued by city police authorities and is not the national level PCC. But in actual it was the only PCC i could provide according to the law in Pakistan, which i provided. I explained this to my agent and he explained to CO and after some time he agreed upon that and finalized my visa. Hope it helps!

Even here the PCC is only available from a particular city. Your answer helped me to clear the confusion. Thanks. I have contacted my consultant. Let's see how it goes from here. Would like to know a few things: After how many days/months did they grant you the visa from the date they asked for an Overseas Police Clearance - National? Did they ask you to fill up that obnoxious Form 80 at any point of time? Thanks!

osfarooq Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 After PCC it took a bit more than month and i had filled the form 80 and uploaded in advance as advised by my agent. I am glad to help you. Best of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrussell Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 PCCs from Pakistan should be issued by the relevant superintendent of police, not some other police authority, but this sometimes happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osfarooq Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Thanks for clarification. But i wrote city police authorities and SSP city is the one who has the authority to give PCC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
