Police certificate

[rstlne]

I have applied for my parents green card and my parents live in a small town: they need to get a police certificate for their interview appt at the embassy: No one at the local police station seems to know anything about what to write and whom should it be addressed to: Is there a sample police certificate someone can help me find which they can ask the officials to type for them( the do not have any criminal hx of court investigations pending)?

Any help will be appreciated,

My father went thru same process. He didn't have police clearance certificate (pcc). If your parents passports are brand new, less than 6 months old, pcc is not required, this option is good only if they lived at the same address for their entrie life.
If not, they need to go to passport office and that's where they start to apply for pcc. They have to have ration card to speed up this process. They are not gonna get from police office.

PCC is very important document when they submit their papers. It usually takes a month to get it unless you know someone. Basically its a inquiry for the person if they have done and criminals/fraud/arrests. Even though they don't have one you have to apply thru passport office. They need to do this fast because sometime it takes time to get pcc. Passport office send to police office for all the enquires.

Let me know if you need more assistance.

Hi Rubie,

I would suggest you not to put so many different addresses, that will be hassle for you unless you have too.
..........
