When is the police certificate needed?

[IloveDanang 38]

This is for CR1.  Should be one more month to get NOA2.  Just asking to get ready.  Is the police certificated needed for NVC stage or is it for the interview?

 

-thanks.

So she has to get it from her country then mail it to me.  And then I mail it to NVC?

No, it is for the embassy interview.

So which is it?  Seems like I'm getting conflicting info.

When I sent in my paper work to NVC it was required that I send a copy of my police report and take the original to the interview.

For Vietnam, you bring it to the embassy when you interview.  Jason

That is correct. Take it to consulate in Saigon. Don't wait until the last minute to get it. It can take a long time to get and you might need some coffee money ($20 will probably do it). My wife had to return numerous times to get hers. Typical Vietnam.

The OP is doing CR/IR1 visa, so it will different for who doing K1. From my  experiences as a person already going through the CR1 process: Your spouse from Vietnam must request police cert from So Tu Phap. When you request it, they will give you two original police cert. Your spouse keep one and she must mail another one to you( US Citizens spouse). After that, you will submit it together with another required document to NVC. If not, you will get the checklist and can't have a case complete until NVC got the police Cert.

I thought IR1 & IR5 docs during NVC stage can be scanned and upload for HCM? Making sure to bring all original docs to interview.
