2 PCC's due to dual citizenship

Hi,
I have two citizenships and was wondering if I will be requested to send PCC's from both countries.
Is there any other document I will have to supply from the country I am not living in, because of my citizenship?

PCCs have nothing to do with citizenship. You need to send an overseas police clearance for every country you have lived in for 12 months or more in the last 10 years.

Thanks!
I am so glad I don't have to send an additional PCC.
I am getting tired of gathering documents form every existing authority

I am applying to DIMA.
So do I need to send additional PCC's?

As previously stated, you need to send an overseas police clearance for every country you have lived in for 12 months or more in the last 10 years.
