Recommended Posts

Okay, my wife wants to bring her Mother here from the Philippines. Her Mother worked in Hong Kong from 1994-98 and this is the only time she was outside of the Philippines, does she need a Police Clearance/Certificate from there considering it was 10 years ago? How would the U.S. Embassy know she worked there?

K1 Process

6-28-2004 Submitted I-129F Petition for Alien Fiancee

8-16-2004 Called US Embassy in Manila to verify they had received my petition for my fiancee and inquire as to approx how long before she receives her K1 packet. Nice lady informed me they received my petition on July 30th and that my fiancee would be receiving her packet in about 1 week and that her K1 interview date at the embassy was October 22nd.

Generally, when filling out the residency on the DS-230, she would have to complete that part. Any place that you have lived at for more than 12 months (or 6 months, not too sure) since reaching the age of 16, you should declare. With immigration, it is best to be honest. Was there any documentation of her working there? 4 years is quite a while to go without being undocumented. I would tell the truth and obtain the police certificate like the NVC has requested.

That's what I thought but it's a complex process to get a police certificate from Hong Kong...there's a lot of different documentation and such that you need and one is a Hong Kong ID card which I don't believe her Mother kept so I'm not sure how she would circumvent that in order to obtain her police certificate?
