[JandC 0]

I received my police cert yesterday.....it took exactly 40 days.

Haha - same as ours (taking 40 days.) Nothing like riding it out until the last possible minute. Well, glad you got it!

Yeah, they certainly like to keep us on ours toes! Glad i've got it now though.....one less thing to wait for!

He applied right around the time you guys did!

Not to mention he found out he needs another one from Jamaica cuz the other one is expired!

You have to factor in the time it takes the Jamaican postal system to get it to him....

Hi everyone, i posted this question before but never received any response was hopin mayb someone could help me here??!!

I have received my police certificate but it doesnt mention anywhere on it any previous names used even though i added it onto the form i filled in.

I changed my name at age of 18, will i have to reapply for another certificate for my previous name? Or will the embassy be happy with the certificate i have?

thanks

Does anyone have the answer on this? How does the Embassy know you requested a police certificate for current and maiden name and for all previous addresses when all you get is the single piece of paper addressed to you as you are now??

We weren't in this situation, but I would keep a copy of the form you submitted to get the certificate in case there was any question. I'm sure its standard operating procedure for them to check the other names but only print the current one on the certificate itself.

True that! Jamaican post is the worst!

Correct me if I am wrong but doesn't the Police Form that you fill in ask if you have ever used any previous names etc? I'm sure it mentions something on it, if so they should automatically search under that name also.

You are right, the form asks for any other names and all addresses. The letter that comes back, however, doesn't refer to which names and addresses were searched. I kept a photocopy of the form I submitted to the police, but I was wondering how the Embassy would know from the letter that everything has been searched and that I didn't just make up the photocopy?
