Police Certificates

[arwensun1965 0]

Hi all

Mine and Alarna's police certificates came today, I was getting a wee bit worried because as most know I sent all the information and a Cheque on the 5th March 2007, so it was more then 40 days for the certificates to come back.

Both are clear, Alarna and I have never been in trouble with the law so I knew nothing should of been out of the ordinary, so I would suggest that if you have not got one to apply for one now, they are valid for one year.

Good advice, Janice! Ours came in record time (10 days) but that certainly is NOT the norm. Better to be safe than sorry!

I STILL say the visa gods got it wrong there, tha NOA2 took FOREVER and the police cert no time at all!

Mine took forEVER.

^^ I'll agree with you there!

The only saving grace has been how FAST London has been with our case.

Aww thanks Janice!! I really don't have any worries about the interview - seems like just another step in the process now.

I know you guys have been through quite a bit too. Here's hoping we both have swift journeys from here on out!

I am expecting Mylene's police clearance from japan to take 2 to 3 months to be returned, and we couldn't even file for it until the paperwork made it to her embassy .. ugh, she sent off for it last week

Is there a thread that sorta gives people an idea of how long the Police Cert's in the UK are taking, overall?

So far we've been waiting well over 2 weeks now..probably inching towards three weeks, but I'm not sure exactly when Craig mailed away for them. I'm a little ticked that the police told him they take like 10 - 20 days max, when I can see from reading here they generally take much longer!!

Anyway, he's had his medical and all, we're just waiting on those damned certificates so we can apply for his interview date.

Around 40 days.

On the official forms it does say that it takes 40 days, or it used to at least!

Ha - Dan went to his local police station and told them what he needed. They gave him the wrong form to fill out - sooo about 2 weeks later he got a reply that what they requested was not what he was wanting and to go back and request form (don't remember what it was). Finally, they got it off to Scotland Yard to get the right thing. Now we're just waiting on it. That was about a week and a half ago. Guess that makes us nearly 3 weeks in the wait, but 2 could have been avoided! Oh well - no big deal - don't even have our NOA2 yet, just wanted to get a jump on things.

That is why it is best to have everything in Advance, all you little ducks in a row so to speak

That's what we're hoping for...just hope there aren't any more little snags once the ball gets rolling!
