Hi,

I am going through the documents for my husband's interview on April 24th 2015.

I just realized that his police certificate from Spain was issued on April 14th 2014 which means it will be just over a year old on the date of his interview. He no longer lives in Spain and hasn't returned there since the police certificate was issued (we made the trip there just to gather documents for his visa and will not be able to get a new one as his residency card has expired), so it seem as though it shouldn't be an issue, but I just want to make sure. We already got new copies of his police certificates from Brazil (where he currently lives).

Is the one year validity for ALL police certificates, or just for the ones from current place of residence?

19/1/2010 met in Spain

08/2011 moved to his home country, Brazil

27/01/2012 got married!

30/09/2014 Sent IV Package (should have sent together.... thought that I had to pay fees first)

03/12/2014 Checklist for AOS, operator said that ALL IS WELL with IV Docs

08/12/2014 Scan Date for corrected AOS

04/02/2015 Expedite request approved

This is how we did it the first time, the problem is that you can't get one from abroad without a current residency card (my husband's is expired). From reading other posts I don't think we will need it seeing as he has not been present in Spain since the police report was issued. Hope that this is right!
