Police Criminal Backgroud Checks

[kona 0]

Hey,

A quick question to all you experts out there... If i was in the USA for summer 2003 and From May 2004 to September 2005 both on J1 visas, for sending in packet 3 do i need to obtain a police background check for the USA as well as the normal UK police certificate? Since a J1 is a non-immigratory visa was I ever "living" in the USA or just staying there while using the visa? And if i do need to get hold of an american criminal background check before the interview, how do i get hold of one exactly since ACRO say during the UK police check they don't check other countries and they dont know how i would anyway!?

Thanks for your help in advance!

No US "police cert" is required in connection with any application. They will do background checks themselves.
