The police certificate

[LIB09 0]

Hi, anyone who has experienced can please help me. How to obtain a police certificate from Nigeria. Is it a walk in process, or a letter is needed from NVC? I am trying to process the DS-230 for the CRI, I read that the police certificate is included in the package that is mail to NVC.

This is from the instructions:

Police Records

The Nigerian police force no longer accepts requests made through the American Embassy. Requests should be at The Deputy Inspector General, Criminal Investigation Department, Nigerian Police Force, Alagbon Close, Ikoyi, Lagos, Nigeria.

The applicant must state full name, place and date of birth, nationality, passport number, date and place of issuance (for current passport or passport used during applicant's stay in Nigeria), exact periods of residence in Nigeria and addresses where applicant resided. Each applicant 16 years of age and over must enclose (1) a copy of the first three data pages of his or her passport, (2) the pages containing Nigerian visas, entry and departure stamps and (3) a complete set of fingerprints taken by the police.

This is where my husband went:

Central Criminal Registry, Rm 47 in Ikoyi. It shares the same compound as the Nigerian Immigration Service.

He was very lucky, they completed everything while he waited. He didn't even have to "tip" anyone. He also didn't need anything from NVC.
