Hey all!

 

I just received my NOA2 for K1 VISA and would like to start preparing documents. I have a question regarding which country to obtain my police certificate, here is my background:

- Born and lived in Indonesia until before 10

- Moved to Singapore to study from 10 - High School

- Went to the US for University and came back to Singapore

 

I basically lived in Indonesia before I was 16, and spent about a 3-4 years in the US, do I need to obtain police certificate for all 3 countries or only Singapore?

 

Thanks!

In your case you will only need Singapore.  Indonesia was prior to you turning 16 and the US will already have any information, if required.

PHILIPPINES ONLY!!!  CFO (Commission on Filipinos Overseas) INFO - Can't leave home without it!

 

PDOS (Pre-Departure Registration and Orientation Seminar) is for ages 20-59.  Peer Counseling is for 13-19 years of age.

It is required to have the visa in their passport for PDOS and Peer Counseling.

No, it depends from country to country... In Belgium I needed a police certificate for every country where I lived for over a year from 16 years old... So he wouldn't need Indonesia (which I believe does not give police certificates anyway)

I'm not sure if you're going to need one from Indonesia since you'll be doing the interview in Singapore. But this what they sent me: 

7.             Police Certificate

Each applicant aged 16 or older must have police clearance from any country where the applicant resided for one year or more

Please note Indonesian Police Certificate is not required
