Hi,

For some cities, you can't get the marital status certificate. Like me, I'm from Fujian province. I called the local 公证处 and they told me that marriage in the USA can't get the notarization of marital status. However, you can make an unmarried declaration. They can notarize that for you.

As to police certificates, you need to go back to your hometown and get it done by yourself. Because as you said, they need to collect your finger prints. So...

3/4/2016- Received P3, returned it about a week later

3/22/2016- P4 email

5/12/16- Interview. Approved!

5/16/16- After a few days saying administrative processing, CEAC now says issued!

Additional snafu: my fiancé came over on his visa, but just a month later (and the day before we were going to get married) he had an emergency that necessitated him returning to China.  I contacted the Guangzhou consulate via their email system, provided the requested documents/proof, and he was granted a second interview for "reissuance."  He had to re-do the medical, redo the interview (bringing yet another copy of all of the things he had to bring the first time) and we were approved again!  He received what looked like a new visa in his passport, but the original 90 day countdown for marriage was still ticking.  He came back to the US and we got married right away!

8/22/16- Married!

Each city may be different I think. In ShuoZhou my Fiance had to obtain her Single Status Certificate from the Marriage Registration Office, this is a branch of the Civil Affairs Bureau, so I would have expected your city to do the same, I would ask them where you can go to get this document.

It is just a document indicating that you have not registered a marriage with them.

I called local 公证处 before I went back to my hometown. And the stuffs who work there will let u know what do they need to get you the documents. As to the unmarried declaration, 公证处 has examples for you. So if i were you, I would call 公证处 first.
