Biographic Data (DS-230/DS-260) for this applicant. In reviewing the form that you submitted, we note

I somehow feel like you answered your own question. You must then provide the two addresses, showing that:

You lived at this first adress from age 16 until whatever age you lived there until you moved to the other address and provide the second address which you lived at until the present day. If these two addresses are in different countries you must provide police certificates for both, or if they are in two separate districts/counties/provinces/etc you must then perhaps provide separate police certificates from both districts.

The instructions were quite clear in that you cannot have gaps between the addresses that are longer than 6 months, if you for example say that you lived at one address until date X, and then started living at the second address from date Y and the time period between Y and X is greater than 6 months they will send you this notice asking you to clarify your residence history.

Take heart regarding the delay; are you are presently in Nigeria ? If you are, then you need to go to Nigerian Police Force; Alagbon Close Victoria Island Lagos. You need copy of your passport and proof of address such as PHCN (NEPA bills) if you have any. If you are not in Nigeria, you need to send a relative there to get it on your behalf.

That was how I got mine.( Be prepared to pay about N5K -N7K if you want to get it quick.)

Wish you the best.
