Thanks for your response. I thought this was the case being I’m unsure if they actually need to physical copy of the new certificate. I’m worried about sending it and losing the original copy in case I need it for something and since I’ve paid twice already for these documents. They didn’t specifically say that this document needs to be sent, the above information is more general. Do you still recommend sending the original copy of the certificate? Thanks!

Hi all, I was told to obtain a new police certificate in order to finalize the processing of my U.S. visa. However, the U.S. Consulate did not specify how to send this document in their correspondence. I did find this on their Visa Navigator and went ahead an uploaded my new certificate, but my question is - do I need to MAIL them the original copy of my new police certificate? I have a wavier for an in-person interview! Thanks!
