You need to get an NBI clearance which contains all aka's.

You do not need local Filipino police clearance.

You need police clearance from most foreign countries if you lived there for one year or more.

Yes you need NBI clearance. This is from the US Embassy Manila website:

Pay particular attention to the highlighted section. They made my wife get a second NBI clearance because she had a misspelling on her birth certificate. She had the birth cert corrected long ago, but US Embassy Manila made her get an NBI cert in both spellings.

4. NBI CLEARANCE (Green Form): Applicants aged 16 years and older must have a valid Record Clearance (for travel abroad purposes) from the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI). Clearances should be in the applicant’s current name, birth certificate name, maiden name, married name, and any aliases or nicknames ever used, including different spellings of all names ever used. An official letter of explanation from the NBI is required for any notation of “No criminal record”, or "No pending case”. For immigration purposes, an NBI clearance is considered valid only for one year from the date it is issued. You may contact NBI at (632) 523-82-31 to 38. The NBI website is http://www.nbi.gov.ph.

hello vj members..my question is do i need to get nbi clearance too because my husbands lawyer said i just need police cleance only...is it true?pls need answer..

You need an NBI clearance... more so than the police clearance... and u must put your maiden name in "other name used"

you should advice your husband that US lawyer tends to "know" the general requirements but they do not know the specific requirements for each country US embassy... My husband had a lawyer when we were filing too, and after we got NOA2, I was given a lit of requirements for tourist visa... and I have to email the lawyer that she had it wrong and gave her the list that was found in the Manila US embassy for K-1 visa.

The lawyer was paid until AOS, and yet I did everything... all she did was have me signed the form that she was representing me, she even copied the cover letter that I made... :bonk:

Moved from CR-1 forums to regional forums as this is specific to the Philippines.

Your I-129f was approved in 5 days from your NOA1 date.

Your interview took 67 days from your I-129F NOA1 date.

AOS was approved in 2 months and 8 days without interview.

ROC was approved in 3 months and 2 days without interview.

Yes to the NBI clearance (green form - VISA USA).

Unless youve lived out of the PI for about 1 year *correct me if its less** you wont need the police clearance.

You don't need to give anything to the lawyer (docs wise) as you will be the one presenting all these on your interview.

Check the pinned topic on the PI forum "Some Useful link" and you'll gain a lot of info there (just go to the last page).

They are IR.CR-1 the process is different, most documents are sent to NVC. But she will need a current NBI for the embassy.
