Police Certificate Confusion

[Johnnie Oz 0]

We have just received the Instructions for K1 visa application from the Embassy. This is amazing news after months and months in the DHS and State Dept meat grinder. Almost there....

What we are now wondering is this:

on the checklist that came with this packet 3, it says that you need police certificates for all place you have lived for SIX MONTHS or longer.

BUT on the supplemental information sheet, with details on police certificates and military records, it says all places you have live for ONE YEAR or longer.

This information is totally contradictory. To be clear, we are not talking about the standard six month requirement for country of residence. or if you have a record anywhere. Just those extra places you have lived.

BEFORE we call the embassy: has anyone else noticed something like this?

Scanning the net, the state dept and most embassies stick to the one year rule. BUT the Embassy in Manila specifically says that six months applies for k visa applicants. that is the only one.

It is this case it is not specific just contradictory.

Since this involves getting hold of that tricky dutch police certificate (tricky for those not in holland), one of the few that you CANNOT get in advance, it would be great if the one year rule applied.

thanks for any info you may have.
