Thanks for your reply. I just filed the I-130. It may be too soon to request the CNCC from Hong Kong. If they send it to Manila Embassy will they know what to do with it, as there is no NVC case number yet?

You need that the case number and the name of the applicant on the letter and the letter must be issued by US Consulate. I just sent mind to Hong Kong last month and I got their receipt by registered mail today. It clearly stated on the CNCC form that it is slolely in connection with a person's application for a visa to visit or reside in another country, or for adoption of children. Application for the Certificate for any other purpose will not be accepted.

NVC's the one that generates case numbers. No one can predict how long the process will take, you'll just have to wait. Once the USEM receives your case, they will send you or your fiancee a request letter for the designated emabassy. Your fiancee will go there and give them that letter together with the other requirements.

I'm just not sure how it works for HK, but after I applied for a clearance at the Israeli embassy, I didn't get to see nor got hold of it cuz it was an embassy to embassy case.

Hi there,

May I ask if what bank did you get a bank draft for Hongkong dollar? I went to BPI but the clearing of the draft is about 45 days so it takes too long to have it and wait.Hope anybody can share how they make it and how they process to secure Hongkong police certificate. thanks

Hi, we have same problem. Maybe, if you have friends in HK you can ask them to pay directly at Hong Kong Police Department in Wanchai for your behalf...That's what I am planning to do. We didn't file the I-130 yet actually..:) God bless...

I'm wondering if my wife can get a letter from the US Embassy in Manila stating that she needs a Hong Kong police clearance. Or do we have to wait for the formal request from NVC before the HK police will process her request for the CNCC?

Hello,

I'm now at this point were you have been (2)years ago, can you please tell me how this turned out for you? Did you have to wait for the letter from US Consulate? or formal request from NVC?

My wife still live and work in Hong Kong and needs to apply now for her HK police clearance and got a RFE for not having the HK police clearance inside the IV Package with the DS-230, I told them HK don't issue the Police reports to people, but they must apply after formal request from the US Consulate! I'm so confused...

Thank You :thumbs:
