    Whether the police already came or not that does not matter. When you apply for a PCC from the passport office, the passport office has to initiate the  inquiry. The passport office has to request the inquiry and it goes through several branches.
    On Indian passports just like your parents name is listed on the passport your spouses name gets listed too. So if your wife applies for a PCC as a married person they will ask her to get a new passport with your name on it as her spouse. I am just telling you these things based off my experience there are some people who said that they didn't have to get a new passport and others did. My husband made an appointment to apply for a PCC and they asked him to get a new passport first. Ask your wife to go to the passport office and inquire about this before she makes an appointment for the PCC. You won't know the whole process until your wife makes an appointment with the passport office and applies for a PCC. Forget about the PCC from the superintendents office it has nothing at all to do with the one you really need.

    Yes this PCC works for Canada and Australia I think. For the States you need one from the Passport office. And not to scare you but in Punjab it isn't that easy. You need to book an appointment first, then they send the police to your place to do an inquiry and get some witnesses. Once the police sends a clear report back to the passport office they send you a notification to come collect the PCC. At least that is how it worked for us. My husband even had to get a new passport because my name wasn't listed on his passport as his spouse and the passport office said they would not issue a PCC unless he gets a new passport.

    Nope not right. We are also from Punjab. Got the same kind of PCC and ended up getting a checklist. This is not right. You need one from the passport office.

    Hello everyone ! I want to say thank you to everyone that wrote their reviews and gave all the information they could, it was very useful! 
    We had our interview on Thursday July 13th in Montreal. I live in Toronto and my husband lives in NY. We met in Toronto and drove over to Montreal the night before. Prior to leaving I checked the weather (because Canada is different everyday ) and it called for rain on Thursday. I wanted to be prepared in case we had to wait outside the embassy. I packed a umbrella and made sure my documents were in a plastic closed folder. 
    Our appointment was scheduled for 9 am. I want to arrive and be by the embassy by8-15 am. We stayed at the chrome hotel about 9 min walk away. Our hotel had parking and checkout was 12pm so we left the car there. We left the hotel around 730 am to get to the area around 745 am. However, due to the rain we took a cab which misunderstood and took us to embassy suites the hotel (smh). That put us another 10 mins away so we called an uber to go to the us embassy and we got there around 8:05 am. I saw people going in so I want to see if they were going to let me in but the lady said to come back at 8:30. We then went to the famous Starbucks across the street and ordered something to eat. At 8:25 we walked back to the doors and they were ready for us. She asked for my welcome letter and passport. You're then directed to the doors for security screening. I went in with no jewelry other than my wedding ring and nothing In my pockets. It was simple for me. My husband had his phone, lighter, cigarettes, wallet etc and they kept everything except the wallet. They gave us a ticket to collect it after we're done. You take the stairs down to the elevator and the elevator up to the 19th floor. The photo booth they have for the passport pictures is a old school birth that you put change and it spits out a strip of photos. I wouldn't rely on that for your photos. 
    We get upstairs and it's and open space with seat for about 50 I think. To the left is a cashier area( I guess to pay certain fees, but I didn't have to go there ) 
    We waited to be called about 40 mins after 9 am. I was called to window 1. The lady was very nice. She asked one by one all my original documents. As I was standing there I noticed she has my full package from the nvc there with her. She then asked me the address I'll be staying at in the US and passport photos then told me to have a seat I'll be called again. 
    I waited about 10 mins and I was called up to window 8. Greeted by a really nice woman. She commented how prepared I was and said it won't be hard. She asked me when did we meet, when did we get engaged, where our wedding was and what he does for a living. It all lasted a total of 5 mins and she said the glorious words 'you're approved'. She said to expect my passport with 5 days at my registered courier service. She said she didn't need the print out of it that I had but I recommend you bring it all just to be safe. She said the last form of contact from them will be an email regarding the passport and when it will be ready
    The whole interview process was the easiest part of all this. Like everyone here keeps saying, be overly prepared and you'll be fine. I also think you wouldn't be there unless you are going to be approved (at least for Canadians) it all just seemed like a formality. We got notified that the passport was at the post office Friday and would be ready for pick up Monday. That puts it 2 days after the interview approval. 
    I hope I didn't miss anything and feel free to ask me anything you like to know !
    Good luck and don't be worried!

    For others who might be curious -- my hubby just got off the phone with Max and was told that Lajpat Nagar is confirmed as the place conducting medicals for immigration.
     
    His appointment confirmation text notes "US Adult" (your appointment with US Adult has been scheduled), which made him think the Dr. was an American. Anyhow, the confusion is cleared now, LajPat Nagar is a go and he is seeing an Indian doctor.
     
    Just an FYI for folks waiting to get their medicals.

    I am now experiencing what we are all here for:   My wife has started the long 20 hour journey to the United States with her visa affixed to her passport and sealed brown envelope in hand.
    She has completed her first flight and is about to board the second flight which is about 16 hours long.  POE should be in about 17 hours.   I have taken these long flights alone many times.  Going to visit her was always very happy.  The return flight back to the U.S. alone was long and sad.   After today we no longer have to travel alone.   She texted me before after her first flight, "we are a team".
