Syria Police Clearance

[Bjorn&lyne 20]

Hello,

My Filippina fiancee worked in Syria 2008-2011. In early August 2014 she applied for Syria police clearance through the Syrian consulate in Manila. She contacted them after 3 months but the consulate does not know what's going on with the clearance. We are currently at the NVC stage of our process and the last document we need is the Syria police clearance to submit to the NVC. Considering the civil war in Syria, does anyone have experience in dealing with Syria police clearance recently or the NVC regarding this issue, again considering the circumstances in Syria pertaining to the civil war? Thank so much for replies!

I'm Syrian

I fled the struggle 15 months ago

when I applied for K1 visa it was necessary to get this document so one of my relatives got it for me, we had to pay the officer a huge bribe to get it

Thank for your reply. So it seems like it is very difficult to get for a person outside the country going through the Syrian consulate in a foreign country... Ouch.

Thanks for the reply. I will contact the US Embassy in Syria and see what they say. I will also contact my senators and see what they can do.

there is no US embassy in Syria anymore

there is no diplomatic connections between Syria and USA

Ah, OK. Thanks for the information. They have a website with contact information still, but maybe they forgot to take it down.
