Where can a Ukraine citizen obtain a police certificate from US

Hi!

Does anyone know where/how I, a Ukrainian citizen, can obtain a US police certificate? It looks like I will need it for my future K-1 interview since I've lived in the US as an F-1 student (2014-2017). Thanks

You don’t need it. USCIS will run background checks with FBI.

It's not for USCIS. It's for the US Embassy in Ukraine, for K-1 interview

"Fiancée visa applicants must present a police certificate from all countries where they resided for 6 months or more after the age of 16, including the republics of the former USSR."

You don't need one from the USA. They can conduct their own checks for the USA.

I was in the USA on a J1 some 20 years before my k1. I declared that fact, and had no problems.
