Hi All,

I have been living in Chennai for the past 1.5 years. My passport was issued in Mumbai in 1997 and my wife's passport was issued in Thane (New Bombay in 2001).

When I checked with Mumbai and New Bombay RPO;s they declined to give us PCC;s since we live in Chennai (to get one we need to prove our residence at the respective RPO areas) ...

We have already recieved PCC;s from the Chennai Police Commissoner's office.

Now if I apply at the Chennai RPO, its the same procedure .. and I dont see what is different in a PCC issued from RPO v/s the one issued by the Police Commissioner Office.

Any one having similar experiances please do let me know.

BTW, it is taking upto 40 days for the Chennai RPO to issue a PCC.

and the good news is my Interview date is Sept 28.

Appreciate your thoughts. !

PCC from Chennai

Hi,

You need to goto the Police Commisioners office, near Pudupet (Egmore Area). and goto the "Intelligence Section". There you need to submit an application along with proof of residence, and two photos.one each for you and your wife and copies of passports.

Here after, the police will come to your home for verification and then you can collect your PCC from the same place.

The format of the PCC contents are standard and you need not give them a template.

Overall it may take upto 2 weeks for this whole process..

Below is the format of the application to be submitted.

Hope this info helps.
