I-129F Petition filed last year

[Str8upG 0]

Hi all, I filed the I-129F petition last year for my fiance in Albania and that case is officially closed (long story). Now I need to retreat an original document (police certificate from Greece), because I'm in the middle of the I-130 process and gathering all the required documents. It's really hard and expensive to get this document again from Greece, so can I call NVC or the Embassy to try to retreat the original? I reckon the embassy has returned all the paperwork to NVC by now. The police certificate does not need to be within 6 months because, last time she lived in Greece was 2004, so 5 years ago. Any ideas, please?

They usually don't give up any documents once they control them, other than some originals.

You can contact them and maybe you will luck out.

my guess it would be easier to get a new penal record from the Greek police than any attempt at retrieving it from the USCIS

you need a copy of the original in order to get the original back.

To get the Greek police report you can just apply at the Greek Embassy in Albania. I think it was 30 euro and takes about a month. They sent ours directly to the American Embassy.

I inquired recently at the Greek embassy in America and they will order it for free with a letter from the person requesting it stating why they want it and a photo copy of their passport. He said it normally takes abouit a month.
