POLICE CLEARANCE - California USA

[Gee2021 44]

Is anybody here from California? I'm looking for someone who previously requested a California record clearance from DOJ? 

How long does it take to receive the California record clearance to your mailing address after submitting the fingerprints? Is it less than 30 days? 

Im trying to coordinate my embassy interview schedule. Thank you!

Why do you need a police report from the US? (I’m assuming this is for the foreign beneficiary)

I'm doing 601-a waiver. Because of my situation I can't adjust status here in the US, so I need to go to my home country for consular processing and I think they need a police clearance here from where I currently live in California. I better be ready and over prepared for my interview.

That is a good approach. I hope someone who is familiar with California police clearance will be able to give you advice. Good luck!

Hm, first time seeing this.  Typically USCIS will contact DOJ directly for the background checks and therefore PCC for the US is not required. 

 

Is the California program for visas for other countries?  Or is it to help speed up processing?  I have heard a part of the delays in I-129F or I-130 processing is due to delays in getting the report back from DOJ.
