Do I need police clearance from the previous Country where I've been living more than 6 months? Thanks sooo much God bless!

[Cody and Daisy 373]

Yes.

[teddy k 35]

You need a police clearance from every country you ever lived more than 6 months

[blooms 63]

Yes it is required as stated below:

Police certificates from your present country of residence and all countries where you have lived for six months or more since age 16 (Police certificates are also required for accompanying children age 16 or older)

Donorea, what country it is? I have my police clearance too, i work and lived in japan before

There are some very rare exceptions but for the most part, you need that police certificate. Please tell us the country you need to apply to so other members who applied to that country in the past can tell you what they did to get theirs.

As others have said yes as it is stated in the Embassy's Instructions for K-1. See the link below with the turning arrow for the latest instructions. Print off a copy and follow as your guideline throughout the K-1 process. Use it as a check list as the are going to be items that USEM is looking for and not anything that is not on the list.

Partly depends on what country you were living in. What foreign country were you living in?

[annamia316 5]

Yes!!!

[Hank_ 9,171]

Not necessarily... depends on the country. What country??

UAE is a waiver country, you can not get a police certificate from there except in person. The embassy knows this and waivers the police certificate

It is my understanding that Saudi Arabia is a waiver country. Is that true?

Thank you so much! This helps me a lot! Is there any papers or letters I need to do in exchange or to waive the police clearance?
