No you don't need to. Quote from NVC's website under Police certificates tab:

"Important: Police certificates expire after two years, unless the certificate was issued from your country of previous residence and you have not returned there since the police certificate was issued."

Thank you. Just wondering if the consulate officers actually follow that in practice.

They should follow it and I would say I have the exact same issue, and my lawyer didn't ask me for a new PC. These are the guidelines. Give  the officer a copy of the NVC website saying that quote in case they ask for a new PC, this should be enough to justify not submitting a new PC.

But ... I guess if the officer is insisting too much, there's not a lot you can do at that moment. Usually if they are insisting, it's for some other reason related to the particular circumstances of the individual.

Hello, 

 

My husband and I submitted our i140 eb2 NIW documents in Aug 2022. However my husband has received a job offer in America that he wants to take. He is Canadian - so could go down on a TN-1 visa in 4 weeks. However I am from the UK so would need to go down on a TD visa - and be unable to work. Can we do this while the i140 is still in the process, and then change to adjustment of status and apply for a EAD whilst awaiting for the AOS green card? Would going down on a TN visa affect the i140 NIW?

TN visa is a single intent visa so if the US border finds out that you submitted your I140 eb2 NIW then they could refuse your entry.  You should be cautious and talk to a lawyer.

Just FYI, what you are suggesting is considered illegal since TN requires non-immigrant intent at the time of application. Only H1B, L1, and O1 visas allow immigrant intent.
