K1 Police check - Double citizenship

[M and Ed 74]

Hey guys! We got our NOA1 today and a big question came to my mind: Police check!

So, I'm currently in the USA visiting my fiance and we filed the form I 129 F while I'm here so the time apart is not as big (we did a TON of research until we found out that it's actually OK to file while the alien is in the USA).

I'm Argentinian but since March 2018 I have permanent residency in Italy (I have double citizenship Argentinian-Italian). I've lived my whole life in Argentina, traveled the word for five years non stop and finally "moved" to Italy this year. Here's where things get tricky: I got engaged and we decided to live in the USA.

So, long story short, here is what I wrote on our forms:

 

MAILING ADDRESS: My brother's house in Argentina (I requested to attend the interview at the consulate in Argentina, since I'm going to be visiting my family by then)

 

CURRENT PHYSICAL ADDRESS: Italy (legally, that's my current address) March 2018 - present

 

PHYSICAL ADDRESS 2 (HISTORY): Argentina

 

Now, the big question: Police check

 

Of course I need the one from Argentina. I understand that I only need the records from countries I spent more than a year at so, even though Italy is my current residence, by the time I attend the interview I won't have been living there for a year (hopefully). In fact, I left Italy in June and I'm planning on going back August 2019 for a visit. So technically, I have only spent 4 months in Italy.

Do I need the Italian police clearance? 

 

Thanks!!

I would get one to be on the safe side, but thats overcautious me. 

 

its not required but they COULD ask for it ,i suppose. better to havve it and not need it, than need it and have to wait to get it

When we were filing in March we did a lot of research and we found that you need police clearance from every country you've lived in for more than 6 months since the age of 16. A friend of mine filed for the spouse visa two years ago, she grew up in the philippines and had been living in japan for nearly 10 years at that point and she had to get the clearance from the philippines

Thanks! I read somewhere that in Argentina they only ask for countries you've lived for over 1 year. Any ideas if this is true?
