Any Ideas

[ManTra 1]

My fiance is Ghanaian but lives and work legally in London. Thats where she was born but her family retained her Ghanaian citizenship. Any ideas if it would be ok to file our application through the US Embassy in London or it has to be the country of her nationality.

Secondly can she obtain a police report in London although she's not British. Thanx much and any ideas or responses would be greatly appreciated.

Police Records

Available. Immigrant visa applicants who have resided in the United Kingdom for six months or more since the age of sixteen are required to obtain a statement from the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) Criminal Records Office. Applicants will find further guidance and application forms at the following website: http://www.acpo.police.uk/certificates.asp

Consular officers who received “No Live Trace” results for an applicant should contact London’s Fraud Prevention Manager for further information. The Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 enables some criminal convictions to become 'spent', or ignored, after a set length of time from the date of conviction. After this period, with certain exceptions, an ex-offender is not normally obliged to mention their conviction when applying for a job or obtaining insurance, or when involved in criminal or civil proceedings. The “No Live Trace” indicates that information may be available relating to a ‘spent’ conviction. “No Trace” indicates a clean police record.

Applicants are legally entitled to gain access to the information about themselves under Section 7 of the British Data Protection Act, 1998.

I think payxibka pretty much has it. Yes they can go through the embassy in London, they just annotate it on the I-129F where is asks which they will be using. She will obtain a British police report through ACPO and a Ghanian one through however would normally issue it. Plus any others from any other countries she has been in for more than a year if applicable.
