Submit DS-260 and documents without PCC?

[colins 0]

The applicant (my wife) currently cannot obtain the Police Clearance Certificate from the Passport Office in Mumbai due to the COVID national lockdown order in India. Could the DS-260 and other supporting documents be processed without it for now? She will bring  the original Police Clearance Certificate with her to the interview when the consulate opens up.

 

Has anybody had success trying to submit without the PCC, or will the NVC simply return the application as incomplete even with the current situation?

Hello,

My husband was in the same situation as he also lives in india and was not able to get the PCC due to lockdown.

We contacted NVC and they told us to select the option of not available and add an explanation why we do not have it.

We wrote to them that we will bring it on the day of the interview or if we are able to get a hold of it early, we will add it as additional doc in the CEAC website. Check the "NVC April 2020" thread on VJ, many folks took this route.
