I am sure the Embassy is aware of the Department of State's Country Reciprocity Schedule http://travel.state....1.html?cid=3662

Saudi Arabia

Police Clearance

"Police clearances are unavailable for third country nationals who no longer reside in the Kingdom."

You may want to print out the link and highlight the provision where it states that police clearances are not available if you no longer reside in the Kingdom.

Police Records

Police clearances are available for Saudi citizens and resident third country nationals. Saudi citizens currently residing overseas must return in person to process the police clearance.

Saudi citizens and third country nationals residing in the Kingdom process the police clearances by first obtaining a police clearance request letter from U.S. Embassy Riyadh, U.S. Consulate General Jeddah, or U.S. Consulate General Dhahran. This police clearance request letter, signed by a consular officer, must be attested by the Saudi Ministry of Affairs (current fee is SR30). The applicant must then appear personally with a passport-sized photograph and a national ID or residency permit at the regional Criminal Investigation Department for fingerprinting. Fingerprinting for women is done in a separate room. The police clearance should be available for collection after a week or two.

Police clearances are available for Saudi nationals residing outside of the Kingdom. The expatriate Saudi citizen obtains the police clearance by returning to the Kingdom and obtaining a police clearance request letter from U.S. Embassy Riyadh, U.S. Consulate General Jeddah, or U.S. Consulate General Dhahran. This police clearance request letter, signed by a consular officer, must be attested by the Saudi Ministry of Affairs (current fee is SR30). The applicant must then appear personally with the attested police clearance request letter, a passport-sized photograph and a national ID at the Regional Criminal Investigation Department for fingerprinting. Fingerprinting for women is done in a separate room. The police clearance should be available for collection after a week or two.

Police clearances are unavailable for third country nationals who no longer reside in the Kingdom.

The optimal time to conduct these procedures at the police stations is 10:00 Saturdays-Wednesdays.

Unless things have changed. Police clearance isn't required from Saudia by USEM.

Only way you can get police clearance from saudi is if you are there.

You are right!

I hope there's a work around somehow.

I'm new here and I've been browsing around cause we're about to file our own K1 request and I have lived outside the Philippines too. But its in the US.

Does that mean I have to go back to the US (where my fiance is at) to get the police clearance?

Talk about a trip...

[marriedtomrg 141]

No, you wouldn't need to return to the US. You will need to request for a state police clearance and a FBI clearance. Both can be requested and processed while you are in the Philippines. Just visit their websites to learn how you can get them.

I've been told that US Police Clearances aren't required because they do FBI background checks as part of the process anyway so they'll already have those.

Doing a bit of digging around here on VJ, I found this;

No US police report needed... the USCIS has access to all needed law enforecement datatbases and will do a query as a part of the process

More to support the above statements:

"Present and former residents of the United States should NOT obtain any police certificates covering their residence in the U.S."

The thread is a year old but I hope the same thing still applies.
