Just a question about police certification. I have always thought I will need one from Germany but now after reading about the certifications again, I've started to doubt it. It says: Police certificates are also required from all other countries where the applicant has resided for at least one year.

 

I'm citizen of Estonia and I did live in Germany but three-four weeks short of one year. I already got my certification once but as the whole process has been delayed, I will need new one. I don't really look forward to the whole hassle again (schedule appointment in embassy, get the signature certified, mail the application, wait until they send it back).

 

I will get one from New Zealand as I stayed there exactly for one year + lived/worked another four months half a year later but I'm doubting about Germany.

 

TL:DR: I lived in another country 11 months and 1 week. Do I still need police certification?

i’ve been enquiring a lot about police certificates and everyone told me u need one if u lived more than 6 months it it. and if it is expired but you haven’t been back should be good too. (but not sure about that) about the NZ careful, it is not the standard criminal record,  it’s called Vetting Section 14 and at the bottom you fill out your case number and address of consulate of country you’ll have the interview in -they send it right away to the consulate, there’s no way for you to touch it at all. it’s a bit tricky on when to ask for it

those that got their “NVC received”  did you call, received an email or checked on new website? I found out my i130 has been approved only by logging in on new website last week

Guys just a quick question! 

Long story short my wife couldn’t attend our wedding in my home country (Colombia) so she authorized my mom to sign on her behalf, couple of days after I traveled to the US for our honeymoon... Should she attend to the interview as well? Any advice would be highly appreciated!

Thank you! I have been back to Germany for short trips, but have not lived there any more. So it seems in that case it should be okay if its expired.

 

Did not know it about the NZ one. It will definitely be easier if it can be sent straight to embassy but I thought that you'd need to include the police certificates for the last steps in NVC.

May case was sent to NVC on 1st may and just got off the phone and they told me they recieved my case on may 7th . They say the usual thing that it should take 6 to 8 weeks for case and invoice number but also he said to call every week and enquire about the status of your case. I hope this nvc stage ends soon.

My wife lived in New Zealand for 5 months and 7 days as student at age 16... for some reason the CEAC system kicked out a request for NZ police report. We submitted to the NVC proof of her stamps showing less than 6 months of stay, and we will be applying for this Section 14 vetting to be sent to the consulate just in case. 

 

Do you have experience with the NZ police report? If the NVC comes back actually wanting it even though she was there for <6 months, will proof of the request for it to be sent directly to the consulate in the interview country be sufficient to get the interview scheduled?

Hy guys

I want to know in how many days after paying tax we can get tax transcript of current year?

Secondly i864 can be filled without having tax transcrips or after it?

Hi. USCIS said they approved my case on April 27th and they will mail my case to the NVC. I called the nvc yesterday and they still haven’t got it. How long does it usually take for them to receive the case from the Texas service center?? Thanks

Hey everyone,

 

I am currently filling out the DS 260 and I noticed that my form DOES NOT ask me for an employment history or my academic background at all. Did you guys have the same experience? The example found here and on the internet still has those questions in it.

 

Please share with me as I am totally irritate and I am not sure if I should send it off or not? Submit it or not, I should say?
