NVC Police Record

[Ozii 0]

Hey Hows it going everyone? I am the petitioner and i am sponsoring my spouse. I am currently at the NVC stage and one of the requirements is a Police Record. Originally my spouses interview location was Baghdad, Iraq U.S. Embassy, but it got relocated to United Arab Emirates (UAE). Baghdad US Embassy requirements for the Police record states that (1) All Iraqi police certificates issued by The Directorate of Criminal Information in Baghdad must be certified by The Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).  This MOFA stamp is a commonly missing element and Post will not accept the police certificate without it.  It should be on the back of the certificate at the top of the sheet in the box marked “MOFA Ministry of Foreign Affairs.” (2) Police certificates issued in the Kurdistan region (Erbil, Sulaimaniyah and Dohuk) are not acceptable for Immigrant Visa application purposes. FYI, we live in Erbil and not Baghdad, as the interview location has changed, can i get a police certificate in Erbil or does the condition that it must be from Baghdad still apply?
