Police Record Trouble(?)

[NCChina 21]

Hey everyone,

My wife's case has been under AP due to CCP membership since her interview in August. A week and a half ago, we received the email asking for her passport, photos, medical record, and police record. She went to Guangzhou to redo the medical exam, and she went to the city her hukou is in to obtain the police record. This went just fine back in 2013 before her interview, but now they absolutely refuse to print a police record accounting for her entire residency in China, and the police record they gave her only covers the time since her hukou was moved there in 2011. We figured this would be OK if we sent another notarized copy of her certificate from 2013, as the dates overlap and show without a doubt (to any person with at least a single brain cell) her entire criminal record throughout her life. However, yesterday we received another request for documents, and the medical record was updated to have an expiration date in October, but they still say the police record is expired. Is there anything at all we can do or are we just screwed? We've tried contacting the PSB in her hukou city multiple times, and no matter what they refuse to provide the correct document. Her former residences are unable to provide the documents since her hukou is no longer there. We've tried sending inquiries to the consulate, but they stopped responding to our inquiries several months ago for whatever reason. We've tried sending inquiries through ustraveldocs, but they just respond that the consulate will contact us if they need any more documents (despite us telling them clearly we HAD been contacted again already). It's starting to look and feel hopeless and we both feel we've done all we can do.

Thanks.

sometimes this works:

fire off another email to the IV unit via the webform thingie -

in the top line put "Consul Review Requested"

then write:

We have sent all of the police certificates that were asked. I feel that the PRC staff have missed the 2nd and subsequent police certificates, and the Vice-Consul not review the casefile. I ask that the Vice-Consul assigned to review the casefile actually review the multiple police certificates, noting MOVEMENT OF HUKUO .

then at the bottom, write:

"Consul Review Requested"

=-=-=-=-=--=-=-=

Why do it like this, why do it again? PRC staffers handle this paperwork flow, not the Vice-Consuls, up and until the casefile is considered complete by the PRC folk, then the Vice-Consuls review it. IMO a Vice-Consul not get to it, yet and yer being punished.

Send this out 2 times a day, for 5 days, whilst the IV Unit is open. then stop. wait a week, and if no movement, get the Immigration Liason Staffer human with yer congressman's office engaged.

Thanks Darnell, that looks like a good plan. We actually received a response from the last email we sent to the IV unit but they only said they "would" accept multiple police records, nothing specific to our case. We'll start messaging them again on Monday specifically requesting a consul review like you said.

Hi NCChina,

Did your wife get approved?

I have difficulty getting the police record from my hometown because my Hukou was migrated to another city where i live now when i graduated from college.

I have already got the police record from the local police station in the city which my Hukou belongs to. This police record doesn't mention anything about my "entire residency in China". Should i try hard to get another police record from my hometown since NVC's website mentions people who have lived in multiple places have to submit all the police certificates?

I have another question: the police certificate must be notarized by notary offices? I notice they said only the documents which are not in the local official language needs to be accompanied by certified translations.

Thanks in advance.
