I'm not sure they're mailed. Mine took 15 days to be ready for me to go back and pick it up. However, according to the state she'll be getting it (I know, they're federal, but different offices have different timeframes), it'll take longer or it'll be ready faster. Also, they're good for 90 days.

Thanks, the Consulate said they were good for 1 year

Well, the certificate says "valid for 90 days"... But if the consulate says they're good for a year, even better. I won't have to get another one! smile.gif

Dear Sir or Madam,

I have just submitted my I-129F Petition here in the United States for my Brasilian Fiance. I had a very quick question I am hoping you can answer for me.

I know she will be required to bring 2 Police Certificates to her interview when the time comes. Are we able to get those Police Certificates now or are they time sensitive?

We are trying to gather all the documents we need now, so any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much,

Best Regards,

Erik Pelletier


They have validity of one year.

Hmmm, weird. Okay, even better. State police certificates are valid for a month in São Paulo, but if the consulate thinks it's okay to bring one I got back in May, good for me! Thanks, Erik!

Took me 2 weeks to get the Federal one and 20 minutes the State one at 'Poupatempo' in Sao Paulo. Now, Poupatempo issues it online, you just need to print it: link

My federal one also says 90 days, I even asked for another one already since mine expires in early September. I'll call the consulate and ask for sure on Monday. If anything I won't go pick up the one I asked for last week.

Thanks guys.

She already went and got the State one (well the equiv of State Police there). That one only did take a hour or so. She'll be going to Campo Grande Tuesday to apply for the Policia Federal one.

Also, when she went to get the State one, the guy told her she needed 2 others, one being Policia Federal, and another Police agency (don't remember right now, I'll try to ask her what the guy said again today). Anyone every heard of this? a 3rd Police Certificate? The guy told her she needed it for her Visa... I dunno

Never heard it either. Ask her to call the Secretaria de Segurança Pública of Campo Grande to know if what she got is the state certificate.

She actually went to the Secretaria de Segurança Pública in her hometown of Aquidauana. There isn't a Policia Federal there, so she needs to go to Campo Grande for that.

But, the guy at the Secretaria de Segurança Pública in Aquidauana said she needed the Policia Federal, and another one (still haven't talked to her yet today to find out what he said exactly.)

I told her that wasn't the case, all we needed was the Secretaria de Segurança Pública, and the Federal certificates, but she said this guy insisted she needed two others besides the one they gave her.

I'm not overly concerned about it, but found it weird because she told him what the document was for (well actually she gave him the sheet that comes in Packet 3 that your suppose to bring to request the Certificate).
Erik
Talked to her, I misunderstood her. They told her the Policia Federal does not give out the certificates anymore, she was told she had to go to the Courthouse or (Forum) in Portuguese (sorry, I'm sure there is a accent on the "o" but I don't know it lol).

Apparently when she went to the Secretaria de Segurança Pública, they made her go to the Courthouse also...

Never heard of this

Aaaaah, they don't ask for the one given by courthouses. If they don't it in her state, she could try and get it done in Rio, before the interview.

Girls, how long does it take it to be ready to go and pick it up?

It took my girlfriend 22 days for her certificates (state and federal) to be ready. Since she's in Parana she had to pick them up in Foz do Iguacu. Her certificates have an expiration date of 90 days. This is the first I've heard that the Rio consulate will accept them for up to a year.
Luis&Laura
I heard they don´t accept the courthouse certificate at the consulate, didn´t come from the source though, so you can call and check.

Yeah my confusion is the Police sent her to the Courthouse, they told her they don't do that anymore. I can't believe they would make her to go Rio first to get Police Certificates.

If the Secretaria de Segurança Pública told her that in person, what in gods earth can she do?
Erik
I just talked to her, she's gonna try the Secretaria de Segurança Pública in Campo Grande (since she has to go there for the Policia Federal anyway).

You guys are right, they don't take Forum or Courthouse documents, I just read it in the instructions for Police Certificates good.gif

I hope she can get it in Campo Grande sad.gif

I've found on the SSP/MS the addresses where she can obtain the "atestado de antecedentes". Maybe this will help you.

I just called the consulate. They said both the federal and the state certificate is valid for a year, even if it says 90 days on it.
