germany United States Police clearance letter?

[Tschuulia 28]

hi, 

 

i was an Aupair for almost two years in the states and just read through the nvc page, category:  required civil documents.

 

i might need a police clearance letter from the states but where do i get one of these?

Maybe there is someone from Germany here which had gone through the same and could help me out or knows about this ?

i was texting the consulate but they literally just sent me a document with the exact same answer as on the nvc page. 

 

Please ask for any further information, of which state etc. i dont know if that is needed!

 

also i am about to send a form which is called J Visa Advisory Opinion Application to see if i am eligible for the 212(e) - Subject to the two year residence requirement. 

Anyone experience with it?

You don’t need the police certificate the US, they look at your background internally.

Did you check if your J1 does state that you have a two year residence requirement after returning home? Not all J1's have it so I am wondering if you even need to apply for a waiver

There are only a couple people on that sub that I would actually listen to because the vast majority of them have no idea and/or just say that you need to see a attorney.

i cant even afford an attorney.
thats why it is so hard and painful to go through at this stage of petition. 

not only because i am the only one who has to file for all of these things now, and gather all the infinite and required documents they want and need but its also in english and nobody in my circle i know, knows what i am talking about, let alone my husband in the US.

I've had the same. I'm of German origin (my husband is Iraqi hence the other flag in my profile), I had a J1 with the same comment that you have on the visa, and nothing was checked in the applicable section in my DS2019. Nobody asked about this, ever. I'm an LPR now. I would say just provide a copy of the visa in the passport and you're golden.

No pity party, most of us don't use attorney's (and many actually have experiences with attorneys giving bad advise). Join the NVC April filer group and read about other experiences. We're all doing it on our own, and if you know where to look, DOS and USCIS actually provide accurate and helpful guides You can do this!

I completely understand trust me. That is why we are here to help and there is even a German part of VJ for people. So you are not alone.

There are many very knowledgeable people here, I don't use any other immigrations forum since I found this Just always keep in mind that most experiences are individual and every case is different (I guess what I'm trying to say is don't panic when you read about a bad experience, because you might experience quite the opposite at a similar stage).

If you're at NVC stage, join us here (and a May group will likely surface tomorrow)

i was already looking under country specific threads and posts but there are only a few and some of them are my own, lol. 
i mean i just started and still have to learn alot of things here but i am also afraid to ask too much and get things back like, - there is already something online here - 

but i am just not in the mood to read through a bunch of posts, you know.
