[May & Mickey 11]

Hello po..I am wondering if anyone can help me with this one. I am waiting for our petition to be approve. Is it okay to get the NBI/Police clearance in places my fiancé lives for atleast 6 months before we even receive the instructions to do so? Or do we have to wait for that instructions from USEM before we start doing it. 

 

Salamat po in advance..We truly appreciate.

Yes, get it ASAP that way when you get the NOA2 you don't have to worry about waiting for it. What countries do you need a PCC from?

[May & Mickey 11]

Philippines and Hongkong. Thank you.

Hello po. I just went ahead and read the requirements in HK police certificates. I found this: 

All applicants should appear in person at the Certificate of No Criminal Conviction Office which is located at 14/F, Arsenal House, Police Headquarters, 1 Arsenal Street, Wan Chai, Hong Kong. The office is open from 9am to 5:15pm from Monday to Friday. (Note: The payment window is closed daily between 1-2pm and stops accepting payments at 5pm.) Applicants may elect to make an advance appointment through the Automatic Telephone Appointment System at 2396-5351, no less than one day in advance of the intended appointment. Please note that the "Certificate of No Criminal Conviction" or an appropriate reply together with the applicant's police record will be sent directly to the U.S. Consulate General. Please do not ask for a copy to be sent to the National Visa Center (NVC) as this could delay processing of your visa application.

 

An applicant should be prepared to present the following items:

• his/her Hong Kong Identity Card or valid travel document;
• the original and a photocopy (for each applicant) of the letter from NVC which contains his/her name and the checklist of documents necessary for obtaining a visa (the one that references the need for police certificates);
• the original and photocopy of a document proving his/her relationship with the principal applicant for the visa if item #2 does not contain the applicant's name;
• the processing fee of HK $210 per person - payment via cash, Octopus cards or checks payable to "The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region."

Right now, We don't have any NVC letter so we don't know if they will take my fiancé without any letter from NVC or Manila about the checklist of documents.

 

Thank you so much,

May & Mickey

You are K-1, you will not get a checklist from NVC.   The requirement checklist from USEM is all online, they don't mail you a checklist.

https://ph.usembassy.gov/visas/immigrant-visas/fiancee-visa/the-interview/

 

STEP 5 is the checklist.

 

As for the Police Clearance.  Read further down that page for instructions for those residing outside of HK:

 

Individuals residing outside Hong Kong:

Applications should be made in writing to:

 

The Commission of Police (Attn: EO CNCC)
14/F, Arsenal House
Police Headquarters, 1 Arsenal Street
Wan Chai, Hong Kong

 

An applicant residing outside Hong Kong must submit the following items (please note that documents issued in languages other than Chinese or English, must be accompanied by an official transcript, in Chinese or English, endorsed either by the issuing authority or a certificated translation services body):

• his/her Hong Kong Identity Card or valid travel document;
• the original and a photocopy (for each applicant) of the letter from NVC which contains his/her name and the checklist of documents necessary for obtaining a visa (the one that references the need for police certificates);
• the original and photocopy of a document proving his/her relationship with the principal applicant for the visa if item #2 does not contain the applicant's name;
• a full set of the applicant's fingerprints taken and certified by a recognized and official police or law enforcement agency where the applicant currently resides. Certification of the fingerprints must clearly state: (i) the full name and rank of the person taking the prints, (ii) the full name of the police or law enforcement agency with their official chop; and (iii) the date and place the prints were taken. Prints that do not clearly show certification will be refused. Fingerprints taken by the applicant him/herself, a legal representative or private/commercial agency are also unacceptable;
• a bank draft in the amount of HK$210 per person, made payable to "The Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region." The draft must be payable in Hong Kong. A personal check in Hong Kong dollars, which is issued an authorized by any licensed banks in Hong Kong, is also acceptable.

If an applicant is under investigation by the Hong Kong Police or is currently a defendant in criminal proceedings in Hong Kong or is subject to non-payment of fines including traffic offences, his/her application will not be further processed until the matter has been concluded.

The relevant application form, standard personal data form, and fingerprint consent form can be downloaded from the web page of "Certificate of No Criminal Conviction" on Hong Kong Police Force website. Any inquiries may be addressed to Certificate of No Criminal Conviction office, email: eo-cncc-ib@police.gov.hk, phone: +852-2860-6557 (for local residents); +852-2860-6558 (for overseas applicants), fax: +852-2200-4321. Please refer to police.gov.hk for further information and updates on police certificate from Hong Kong.

You probably have to, at least wait for the approval notice (NOA2) and your case number from NVC to be able to request for a HK Police Certificate. 

 

I wanted to get my HK Police Certificate before going back to the Philippines last year but it's just not possible without any documents showing that I needed to get one.

You think I don't know that? Also it was shared above as well. My comment was based off needing a PCC from Hong Kong so it's better to try and get that now instead of waiting for it.

Yes get the fingerprints at PNP Crame.    I believe as you do that the chop is the official seal for the police.

 

It would be nice if someone who has completed this would chime in to assist you.
