Police Certificates

[jotang 0]

I just recently stumbled onto this site, so forgive me if I'm not using the terminologies correctly.

It's been a month since NOA2 and NVC forwarding the case to the consulate in GZ, PRC. I am preparing the items needed for P3 and noticed that section about police certificates. Aside from China, my fiance also lived in Malaysia for several years and the U.S. for more than a year. My questions are as follows:

1) I read a document dating from 2000 specifying that Malaysia was among the countries where police certificates were not required. Searching through VisaJourney, I'm assuming that is no longer valid. Can she get the certificate from the Malaysian consulate in China? What are the documents required?

2) Is it required for her to get a police certificate in the U.S.? If so, how would I go about obtaining one? Is it the municipality where she lived or the state?

Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.

pretty sure you will need a police certificate from any country where she lived more than 6 months since her 16th birthday.

Hello there Well, payxibka says it all. You'll have to obtain the police certificate from Malaysia. I'm from Malaysia... I am gonna apply for it soon since I haven't gotten my NOA2 yet (still waiting). Anyways, it wouldn't take too long to get it, I'm sure. everything's stated in the website.

Good Luck!

Thank you all for the info. I am currently in China with my fiance and will go down to the local Malaysian consulate for an application for the Letter of Good Conduct today. BTW, for anyone interested, the form I downloaded from the Malaysian mission website states that the processing time is 14 days, not the 1-2 months stated on the website itself. I'm not sure which one is out of date. I will post another reply to this thread once I find out in a few hours.
