[KayEss 4]

Hi

My i130 is in NVC and i got nvc no yesterday. just wondering do i have to call again to find out AOS bill / ds3032 is generated or can i check it online?

also i am living in the UK for last 8 years before i left pakistan.

do i need to get police certificate from pakistan ? also i was reading that ill need to get police certificates from every area where i lived in pakistan after the age of 18.

its quite difficult to get police certificates like this. i can get one or two but all is gonna be difficult.

also if i dont think i have got my vaccination record? what do i need to do on that?

thanks for your help.

You will find the AOS bill online and they will email you when it is ready to be paid. They will send you the DS-3032, though you can send it off before: someone will tell you how.

You will need a police certificate from Pakistan, from every jurisdiction in which you lived: "Police records (also known as Character Certificates) are available at no cost from District Coordinating Offices, and take up to three months to obtain. There is no central police register in Pakistan, and applicants should therefore provide certificates from every jurisdiction in which they have lived for the requisite period of time. Police certificates are available by mail. Applicants currently outside Pakistan should contact the nearest Pakistani Embassy or Consulate for instructions."

Go ahead and start the process of obtaining the necessary certificates. Don't worry about the possibility of not succeeding right now :-)

If you are unable to obtain record of your vaccinations then you can go to your doctor and try to get blood titres done to test you for immunity to those diseases you think you have been vaccinated against. You will need to receive any vaccinations you have not had, or those which you cannot prove you're immune to. This can be done prior to the medical (in which case bring proof) or at the medical.

The UK police certificate will be valid for a year. So it's safe to go ahead and get it now: http://www.acpo.police.uk/NationalPolicing/ACROCriminalRecordsOffice/PoliceCertificates.aspx

Thanks Joanna, I was just look at forms it was saying the photo needs to be endorsed by professional. Does the professional needs to be in civil service?

No, pretty much any non-relative with an, err, suitably impressive job title. Look at the list of examples on the form. The main thing is that they've known you (doesn't have to be well!) for over two years. Your superior at work, an old school teacher, your doctor.
