RE: Questions for my fellow Jamaican filers

[SweetieOne 41]

O.K., I am far from this step, however I am always one step of things. I would like to know what if my husband doesn't have a Taxpayer Registration number? What will he need in place of that. It states that when applying for the Police Certificate he will need the following:

Valid Passport-Check

Taxpayer Registration number---- What do we do now :help: :help:

Two passport photos-Check

Receipt of payment from any tax office-Check

If anyone that is currently or has filed for their Jamaican spouse please help if you know the answer.

Thanks,

Nattie

Not a spousal visa question - moving to regional as this is a regional issue with police reports and tax numbers.

Unfortunately, the TRN is the equivalent to our SSN. He will have to get one. I asked my fiance and he said the local tax office, but I looked further to help you. Here is the link that I found. I hope this is helpful.

I don't know how he gets by without having a TRN when most things you do these days you're required to present it. He will definitely need it for his police record as you pointed out. On Thursday when I went to express mail my package to NVC, I had to present a TRN number along with my ID in order to do so. Tell him to look about it as soon as possible, so there won't be any delay when it's required for any document he is looking about for immigration purpose.

He need a TRN to obtain his passport, so how did he get the passport?

Its easy to get a TRN once he never had one before. im not sure if he needs his birth certificate but he needs to fill out a application form there and he will get a temp card until the permanent one is ready. he should be able to conduct business with it. Dont understand still, how is it that he has a passport, but no TRN, did he lost his or cant find it?

PS. Dont rush to get the police record, dont wanna get it too early. wait until you get NOA2. then he will have enough time..........just my advice still

If he got the passport as a minor he would not have needed a TRN at that time. anyway its easy to get one. He should go to the Tax office and they will tell him what to do.

My fiance got his police record this month, is that too early for police record. He needed a new one for work, since his company changed owners, so he went and got that one as well.
