So there is a lot of old very conflicting information on the US embassy in Manila requiring police clearance from Kuwait during the interview process. My fiancé worked in Kuwait for 2 years so assuming she was going to need police clearance from there she flew to Manila in Feb and went to the Kuwait embassy to fill out the paperwork for her police clearance. At that time they told her it would take 2 months to receive her police clearance. Its now been 2 months and they are saying its going to take 6 months. I have also read some people waiting 8+ months. This is a real issue for us because our petition has been approved and I expect her to have an interview date by the end of April. Also the NOA2 states that it is only valid until the end of July. IF it takes 6+ months the police clearance to show up our petition approval will expire because she will not be able to schedule her interview. I have also read that police clearance from Kuwait is exempt but there seems to be very confliction information regarding that. If any one has RECENTLY gone thru the K1 interview process with a Filipino that worked in Kuwait I would appreciate knowing if the Kuwait police clearance was required during the interview and if so how long it took to get your police clearance from Kuwait. Thanks!
