Hello Everyone,

 

I had a question about the Police Certificate requested by the embassy for the Visa interview. My fiancé and I met and lived in China for two years. Now we are getting ready for our Visa interview and we noticed that one of the required documents is a "Police certificates from all countries resided over one year since age 16". We were living in China when Covid hit, but luckily we were on vacation. We were unable to return to China and instead went back to our home countries. We've been trying for some time and we've not been able to obtain this Police Certificate. We tried calling a number given to us from the Chinese embassy in her home country. We also contacted a company that claims to be able to get it on our behalf, but also asks for documents that are no longer in our possession and that we are unable to get. My question is, what options do we have to fulfill this requirement? I've read that we should submit an a notarized affidavit explaining the situation, but I'm not sure if that will be enough. If anyone can provide any guidance or information we would greatly appreciate it. Thank you everyone!

Following the advice from visa journey and the initial embassy of Rangoon, I sent my fiancée on a grand tour of south East Asia to collect 4 police certificates thousands  of dollars later we were now ready for the medical the last step before Rangoon would schedule her interview. I sent a proof of medical in hand to Rangoon and and they said after reviewing her case, she needed just one police certificate, that from the city of her current residence. 
 

So you might get lucky and the embassy won’t ask.  
 

Several months later I asked my wife’s immigration lawyer, why the police certificates went unused, and she said “K-1 is a non immigrant visa and so Congress doesn’t require the embassy to require police certificates”.  🤦‍♂️
