Just called the FBI center and was informed that they are opening applications that were received on Oct 27th.
Good luck everyone who are waiting and keep us updated.
 
Mine also 27th Oct .. First CIC was testing my patience now FBI PCC ... 11 weeks over no c.c charging.
 
Hi,

The travel form state that we should mention only countries we stayed in since the age 18 or in the last 10 years. I am 42 and I lived in USA until october 2002 which means that it was not stated on the travels history document. Do you think that I still need police clearance from the USA. Any opinions? I am worried that my fingerprints get rejected even after collection of payment from FBI as medicals and PCC will be requested soon from the local visa office.

Thanks

According to guidelines you don't need the FBI report and this is explycit exposed thru. They can request it ? Who knows? BUT, if they do so, they are aware that you would not had requested yet coz the guidelines does not require and they should expect a timewindow of at least 18 weeks. Therefore, I dont believe they would ask, however if I were walking on your shoes I would have requested just in case.

Thank you my friend for your good response. +1 for you
 
Anyone applied for FSW, should apply for FBI PCC immediately irrespective of what stage they are into. Currently there is prolonged delay, you never know when you will get the report after your application, currently the processing time is 16-18 weeks.
 
I sent a request to extend my deadline but I have not heard anything from NDVO. Do you know how long will it take for them to reply?
 
Hello everyone,

I'm sorry if someone has asked this questions before but I haven't seen anyone address this:

The payment options listed on the form are money order, certified check, and credit card. Can I use a (US$) demand draft like the one I used for my FSW application?

Thank you all for your help with this.

As far as I understand, only credit cards are accepted by FBI as mode of payment. The only payment form an applicant should provide contains only credit card data.

Thank you for your response Giftsmas. The FBI website says: "Option 1: Pay by credit card using the Credit Card Payment Form. Don’t forget to include the expiration date of the credit card that you are using.
Option 2: Obtain a money order or certified check for $18 U.S. dollars made payable to the Treasury of the United States. Please be sure to sign where required." and the identity-history-summary-request-checklist-1 states: "Include a credit card payment form, certified check*, or money order for $18.00 per request.
Note: This amount must be exact. "

So I think there are three options. I'm wondering whether a demand draft will work.
 
Demand draft and certified Check are same.
