In the Philippines, the police clearance is valid until six months from the date it was issued. Check your country's police clearance period of validity. I secured my police clearance on August 16 this year and on August 25, the NOA2 arrived.

Have a fantastic weekend!

In BR the PC is valid for 6 months but the consulate accepts up to 1 year. Send the embassy an email and check with them.

Good luck!

The police clearances I think are good for 6 months but this may vary between countries. Check yours.

Good luck

Most police certifications are valid for 6-months/1-year and since your timeline indicates you're about due for adjudication, I think you could start putting it together. It all kind of depends on how long it typically takes a particular country to issue one.

I waited until I received NOA2, then I apply for police certificate. I make big mistake. In Malaysia, police certificate process took 1-2 months and I received my packet 3 extremely fast. Not much people applying for K1 Visa in here anyway. My police certificate is ready 3 days before my interview and it is scary because I have to go to Ministry of Foreign Affair, Malaysia to collect it. If I waited for them to mail it to me, it'll take 1-2 weeks for me to receive. My advice, just apply it earlier.

get it sooner than later... even if you wait and the reports expire, you are in thier system (hypothetically)
