Police Clearance among other things

[I_Am_That_I_Am 46]

Hello Everyone!

Im here again for another set of questions. And i would like to thank you all in advance for your upcoming replies. hehehe.

1st question: Do i need to get police clearance from every country i have lived in after age 16? i have lived in the US for a short while and I am now currently working in Jeddah, KSA. Do i need to go to US Embassy/office to get my US Police Clearance? While im here in Jeddah, should i get my police clearance now? or can i get them in my country when i go home by going to these countries embassies? Pardon my ignorance but i really have no idea what to do re his thing.

2nd question: I have an ongoing Immigrant Visa (EB3) petition but due to visa retrogression, I still have no idea when my visa no. will be issued. Honestly, i am losing hope already as i have been waiting for my I-140 petition (immigrant visa) for over 3 years now. My fiance and I are now preparing for my K1 Petition and im worried if my ongoing EB3 will have any effect on my upcoming K1 petition. Is it allowed by the USCIS to have more than 1 visa application (but different types) at the same time?

that would be all for now. again, thanks so much in advance.

p.s.

special thanks to Jim Vaphoung of Vietnam for your quick reply on my previous post.

sincerely,

Hi! xhennah,

The Point is this....... First, if you are now working Jeddah & Applying at the Same time you have to get your Police Clearance there, but to do that, if you Applied for K-1 at this time , you have to wait to the Formal Letter given by US Consulate Jedddah Instructing you to get the Police Clearance, if you don't have that kind of Notise , you won't be able to get it Because it's Govt by Govt rules about the Law in Connection with the your Visa Application, Secondly if you are planning to go back home , you Must get Our NBI Clearance , that to US Embassy will Honor As Police Clearance it valids for 1 year After the Date of Issue,About your EB3 Petition you must Closed that Case / rather Checked if still on Progress , other wise it will affect to your Application, about live before in US, no need to get ploice Clearance from here , they will find out that during your processing of your Visa. Good Luck.

My finance is working in Makka KSA. I emailed both the cosulate in Jeddah and Riyadh and both told me that the police certificate only applies to KSA citizens, however they did suggest that since he was still there he should try and obtain it. He just took the I-797 (I think thats the NOA1) to the Jeddah consulate, they then gave him a letter to take to the ministry of foreign affairs where he needs to obtain another signature before taking it to be fingerprinted. Hope this helps and good luck!!! Also, the Consulate in Jeddah, you can only go on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Wednesday between 1-3pm
