Hello,

 

My fiance is from Jamaica and we have completed all the steps with tge exception of his police report. He went to get it and they started that they was a questionable item on it; however his attorney had handle it back in 2008. But they will not release his record because it is still showing.  Unfortunately his lawyer us in vacation and his appt with the embassy is on Aug 29th; which was rescheduled from the 20th if Aug. We dint know which direction to go in at this time. Any advice on what we can do to get his police report? Or should he go to the interview without it? Please help!

He can go to the interview without it.....but expect to be placed in "refused" or "Administrative Processing" status until it is submitted....

Unless you reschedule and they accept he must attend the current one.

 

Did you follow the steps outlined here: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Visa-Reciprocity-and-Civil-Documents-by-Country/Jamaica.html

Procedure for Obtaining:  Residents of Jamaica should first pay for a police certificate at any Tax Office in Jamaica. They must present a passport, two passport-sized photographs, Taxpayer Registration Number (TRN), and evidence, such as a form letter of instructions to visa applicants, that the Embassy requires them to obtain police certificates for immigration purposes. There are next day, express and regular services available.

After the fee is paid, the applicant should take the receipt and documents to the Technical Services Division of the Criminal Records Office at 34 Duke Street in downtown Kingston, where the applicant is fingerprinted. At the end of the specified return period, applicants should return to 34 Duke Street to collect their police certificate.

 

Jamaicans living abroad and former residents of Jamaica may also obtain police certificates, but will need someone in Jamaica to act on their behalf. The applicant should furnish the person applying for the record on their behalf with fingerprints (notarized), two passport size photographs, a copy of the biographic page of their passport, and a letter of consent authorizing the application. If the applicant has a TRN number, then the fee can be paid at any Tax Office in Jamaica as described above. If the applicant does not have a TRN number, then the fee should be paid at the Ministry of National Security, 2 Oxford Rd., Kingston 5. After the fee is paid, the documents are to be taken to 34 Duke Street in downtown Kingston for processing.

 

In the absence of a “clean” police certificate, a Conviction Letter from the Criminal Investigation Branch will outline an applicant’s conviction(s), as long as these convictions are not spent or expunged from his/her criminal records.

Do you know what this questionable item id? Was your fiancé convicted of anything?
