Police certificate

[ks1881 0]

We've got NOA1 so far and being impatient for approval:-( I know that one doesn't need to be in rush when there so many times to wait. But I want to collect some data for myself for future reference. I noticed that the embassy here in Jakarta required ones police certificate from any place you have lived from age of 16, and fortunately they have an advise where to get a police certificate without having you go to any places you have lived to get police certificate. My question is, what documentation do you need to bring when you come to get your police certificate? Do they require the same documentation to be brought when you come to get police certificate for passport? Feedback from readers who've done this very much appreciate especially them who've done this in Jakarta. For information, I have lived in some places outside of Jakarta but not aboard. Thanks

generally they require 2 government id's.. so in my case.. it was a drive license and my passport.

I promised this awhile back. This is from the US Embassy Jakarta.

Our K3/K4 packets are electronic, supplied to us back in october, way before approval, and contained:

A form called "document prep for K interview"

Police certificate information form

DS-230 form

List of area sworn translators, for translating documents to english from foreign language

A one-page document titled "photograph requirements"

A list of area panel physicians

A form called DS-2053 (medical exam form for the physician to fill out)

A form called DS-3024 (chest X-ray form)

A form called DS-3025 Vaccination worksheet

A form called DS-3026 (typical medical history questionaire, like you would fill out as a new patient anywhere)

From the document prep form, directly copied:

The list of documents that we were told to provide:

1. Passport

2. DS-230 Part I

3. Birth Certificate(s)

4. Marriage Certificate (if applicable)

5. Name Change Certificate (if applicable)

6. Death or Divorce Decree (if applicable) from Petitioner and Beneficiary

7. Police Certificate

Each applicant aged 16 or older must have police clearance from any country where the applicant resided for one year or more.

If you have lived in more than one cities in Indonesia for six months or longer you should get the police certificate from the police region of each city (POLDA) or from the police headquarters in Jakarta (MABES POLRI, Jl. Trunojoyo, Kebayoran Baru) which covers all the districts in Indonesia.

8. Evidence of Support. The applicant must provide evidence that he/she will not become a public charge. Evidence of support could include fax copies of applicant's petitioner most recent Federal Income Tax Return (1040) and Tax Statement (W-2), or an employment letter stating salary or wage.

9. Photographs. Two (2) color photos of each applicant in the correct format

The only thing missing is filling out the non-immigrant visa petition, that's done electronically though.

They wanted my Original divorce decree, directly from the clerk of court with the stamp etc etc.

Her birth cert and our marriage books were translated by a translator from their list.

She scheduled an appointment for medical with a doctor from the list, the results were sent directly to the embassy and are being held pending receipt of the package from NVC.

The photograph requirements are directly from the department of state website.

Her name change was done through Indonesian Immigration directly in her passport, per instructions from the Jakarta Consulate.

The police certificate instructions are different for all the countries, I copied mine directly as an example.

Hope this helps. I actually have all these forms electronically

Regards,

David and Nitadyah

OH, and when Nitadyah went to get her police certificate from the headquarters in Jakarta, she brought her family card (what is that?), her passport, and her birth certificate. Also, she had to provide them with some sort of photo, I do not recall what size it was.

Hopefully that answers your original question.
