Police Clearance NOT Required in USEM Jakarta?

[kaysil17 5]

To make the long story short our file was sent to USEM Jakarta instead of USEM Manila. I am currently working here in Indonesia and planned to go back to the Phil next month for the medical and interview.

However, NVC assigned us a Jakarta case number and our file is on its way here. We've decided to just do the process here. My problem now is my NBI clearance. I can request it with the assistance of Phil Embassy in Jakarta but it will cost us a lot of money.

We are awaiting our packet 3 so we can proceed with the medical and interview. I want to start requesting for my NBI ASAP while waiting for packet 3. Yet some members here said police clearances are not required in USEM Jakarta.

How correct is this? If this is true then I don't have to waste money.

Can anyone done with the process in Jakarta tell me if this is true. Help guys!!! Thanks:)

Hi sis, I'm sure you have seen this: http://jakarta.usembassy.gov/visa/fiance_k1_visa.html

Re-check, Item #7: Police certificate IS REQUIRED. If you stayed more than 1 year in Philippines (that is, born and raised), you will need an NBI clearance. Just not sure though, if it's equivalent to and the same as the police certificate, technically speaking (Most likely it is). Maybe best to check both with US and Philippine embassies in Jakarta.
