Hello,
Can you please let me know for how much time a police verification certificate is valid? I am citizen of India and living in USA. When should I obtain them?
Thank you

For the applicant’s current country of residence, the police certificate must have been issued no more than six months before the submission of the e-APR.
For countries in which the applicant no longer resides, the police certificate must have been issued after the last time the applicant lived in that country.
