I'm about to submit the DS230 fee - and I'm wondering about the Police Certificate. It's the only document I don't have available at the moment. I'm tempted to tell my wife to get it prepared *now* so it's ready to go ASAP. How recent does the consulate need the police certificate to be?


The moral of my story: Stick with someone who matches your own culture.

( This coming from an Arab who married an Arab from overseas... go figure. )

I suggest to do it now. Ours was submitted to NVC when it was 3 months old from the time it was obtained from our police locality. At the time of the interview, I suggest that the police certificate is no more than 1 month old.

Usually within a year is acceptable but the best practice is to make it as fresh as possible. I would find out reliably how to obtain it and how long it will take, then request it about twice as far in advance as you think it will take to obtain it. This will vary with location.

Facts are cheap...knowing how to use them is precious...
Understanding the big picture is priceless. Anonymous
