Police Record Validity for Russia

[Hopeful_1 0]

I'm in the process of getting all the necessary documents ready for the NVC before we get our NOA 2. Since it takes about month to obtain and around a month to ship, i'd like to do this now if possible.

Does anyone know the validity for police record in russia from the date it's issued?

I looked on the reciprocity for russia, but it doesn't state anything http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/reciproc...ocity_3656.html

Neither does it mention anything on the american embassy site in moscow http://moscow.usembassy.gov/ivisas_doc.html

I did a search and found one old post mentioning from an unreliable source that it's one year. If anyone knows or could confirm this, i'd greatly appreciate it

Thanks

One year. Check this page from the Embassy website http://moscow.usembassy.gov/fiancee.html and look at item 6 under list of documents for fiance interview. Although you are not doing K-1 I believe it is the same. (Note that the embassy includes K-1 as immigrant visa)

Would any of you guys know of a good link that shows how the I-130 and G325A should be filled out for a Russian wife?

I'm American and she's Russian, we are curently filling out those two forms but the examples on this forum and other forums don't touch upon specific issues like 'patronymic names'.
