In the instructions it states that there is no need for a police clearance from the U.S. if the applicant previously lived in the U.S....My husband has lived here before and he had a few minor legal issues including arrests but never convictions.

Then it goes on to ask... 41. Have you ever been charged, arrested, or convicted of any offense or crime? If yes explain.

Does this include the U.S? Don't they do a background check for the US. Would I have to state yes and provide court records for US arrests.

I don't want to say NO and then they tell me I'm lying...I'm just sort of confused if they are only asking for his native country or for here.

Thanks for any input.

If I could be anything, I would be a tear.

You need to list all charges, arrests and convictions on the 230 even if it was in the US. I am not sure of the PCC for the US but I dont think you need it.

I would include court documents for the US issues.
