Yes, you need to send a police certificate.

You don't have to write a cover letter if you don't want to, it's really just a nice thing to do as it gives you a copy/list of things you have sent and gives an easy reference for NVC. It doesn't have to be anything more than a list of items included, ie:

Please find enclosed the following documents in addition to my form DS-230:

- Police certificate from <country>

- Marriage Certificate

- Divorce Certificate

etc etc.

If you have never been out of the country then NBI clearance will do.. You do not need to get police clearance in every places or provinces you lived here in the Philippines..

I attached the LOTO's guide (with cover letter samples).. It will help you in NVC stage..

Nah.. NBI will do.. Do not waste your money in getting police clearance in the phils. Just get NBI clearance and submit it..
