Criminal Records

[ffp 2]

Hello

My fiance is worried ahead of time. We did not even send I-129F yet... I found out from a fiend of mine that his fiance had to get a criminal record from Ukraine country where his fiance was working/study. She live all her life in Russia and was in Ukraine for 2 years. He said they lost 2 month. She had to bring a Criminal Records from Ukraine.

My fiance live in Kazakhstan and she was in Germany for 3 years. She do not like the idea to go German Embassy to request Criminal Record. If some one who had experience with Kazakhstan. Do they have to do same thing as in Russia? List where they was living from 16 years old till present time. If they was living more then a year in other countries provide Criminal Records from those countries.

I believe this is the case for K1 applicants in all countries, not just Russia or Kazakhstan. She will need a police record from her country, and then also any place she has lived for more than 1 year since she was 16.

You do not need to send this with your I-129f packet, but you will need it for your interview at the consulate. So she will have 5-9 months to go to the embassy and get her record.

You will need to get a criminal report--police record--of all countries lived in since obtaining the age of 16 years of age if the stay was more than 12 months in a country that is not their country of nationality. If it is their country of nationality and they lived in a different location then they need a polce report for that location if the stay was for more than 6 months.

She will need to get the police report from Germany for that period of time. There cannot be any gaps from the age of 16 to the present or you wil get an RFE for the missing time period.

Good luck,
