Foreign Police Certificate

[HunnyBunny 9]

I would like to have some information on Police Certificate required at the time of interview. I haven't received my NOA2 yet, but trying to gather some information beforehand.

Foreign police certificates: Applicants who have resided in any other country for one year or more after the age of 16 may also be required to submit police certificates for these countries. Applicants may check the visa reciprocity table on the website: www.travel.state.gov regarding obtaining such certificates. U.S. police certificates are not required for applicants who have lived in the U.S.A. Non-Indian immigrant visa applicants residing in India should obtain police certificates from the district police station serving their area of residence."

I have found the above information on US Embassy, New Delhi website in "INFORMATION FOR K1 (Fiancé) VISA APPLICANTS (PACKET 3)". After my previous marriage, I stayed in Oman for 13 years. Just before our separation I was on employment visa. When I got separated from my ex-husband, I resigned from my job & returned to India. So my employment visa automatically got cancelled. And I never went back to Oman after October 2007. I am staying in India for past 5.5 years now. In this case, is it mandatory for me to get Foreign Police Certificate from Oman?

Hi...yes its a must for anybody who is applying for a US visa to get police clearance from the country you used to stay for more than 6 months ( whether you stayed for work, studying, visit etc)...you should get one from Oman and it takes time to obtain one...(depending on the country) normally it takes 2- 4 months to get one.

i guess you should start getting information on how to get one from Oman while waiting for your NOA2...see if it possible to apply from their embassy in India.

I applied for Malaysia,Thai,Japan and China...

goodluck to you and hope this helps a bit.

God bless!

Hi, this is from the official US Government website. I have attached the link, just click on the country in question and scroll down to Police Certificate section and it will tell you how to go about getting it or if it is not available. If it is not available, then print it out in its entirety where it states that as proof for your interview. I hope this helps. Good luck.

My husband lived in Muscat, Oman for many many years before he lived in Jordan. He received his PCC in less than a week, and they sent it to him in Jordan. It does not take 2-4 months. To the OP: In Oman they will request your resident number, a copy of your biographic page from your passport and for 2 passport style photos. To obtain it you go to the police station in Al-Qurum, that is the only place in Oman that issues them. If you are not in Oman a friend or someone in the family can do it for you. My husband's sister who still lives in Oman did it for him last year and it literally took a few days to get it. It is printed in both English and Arabic so you won't need to have it translated. Good luck!!!

Thanks a lot... This would really help me. One more query, the validity of this Certificate is 6 months. Is it alright if I try to get it from now? Because I haven't even received my NOA2.

I have a scanned copy of it on my computer and it does not have an expiration date on it so I am not sure how long it is good for. When was your NOA1? We waited until after NOA2 before we got it. I just know for a fact that it takes no longer than a week to get it as long as you have someone to do the leg work in Oman for you. If you have family or friends in Oman who could get it for you, you could potentially wait until NOA2. Just make sure they get a copy in English as well.
