Yes, by appointment po. Punta k Lang sa website ng dfa for that. Kung gov't employee ka, no need. Separate ang floor n pupunthan. Then Kung gano po ktgal, I think ongoing maintenance ang dfa so 2 months po ata ayon as news. Pero mga march ko p narinig yun. Baka back to normal n sila which is 1 week - 2 weeks. :)

Ask ko lang sa mga nag PPR na, yun REd coloured passport po ba pinass nyo? Kc maroon pa po yun akin which was renewed last year.pano po yun mag rerenew ulit ako? Salamat po
Most if not all non-machine readable passports (the green ones) should be expired by now.

All machine readable passports issued by the Philippines are maroon. The biometric passports (the newer ones) look exactly like the machine readable passports except that they have a harder cover and a small gold stamp on the cover that looks like a sim card.

Hello guys

New to the forum. May tanong lang po sana if someone can help me.

I am sponsoring my husband. He was a seaman and has now put in his resignation from the cruise line that he was working for while we are in the process of his papers.

Last contract nya he was in the cruise ship for 9 months. His port was Miami FL.

Does anyone here know how he can obtain police clearance from the US? I didn't include this in the package when I sent our papers in but reading the forum it seems like they will be asking for this police clearance so I wanted to be proactive and for him to obtain this now that way he has it with him when they do request because I am sure it will take some time to obtain the clearance.

Kung pwede makahingi ng help if anyone has an idea on how to do this please.

Maybe I will be lucky na may sponsor dito na seaman din ang applicant nila. Please help.

Thank you po.

Thanks po sa lahat ng sumagot sa question ko.
May tanong pa po ako..Kasama po sa PPR ko ang written explanation from my husband about po sa biological mother nun dineclared nyang child nya po.Unang una po wala clang relationship pero may nangyari po sa knila. Wala rin po proof na sya ang biological na tatay pero po sinusuportahan nya un bata.Dna test not yet done.Hindi po kasama sa application package un dineclared nyang bata.Sa kanya daw po kaya nya nilgay sa data nya ay para hindi na mahirapan kpag sakaling mapatunayan na anak nya un at gusto nyang kunin.Ang sa akin nmn po, hindi po kaya maaapektuhan ang pag bibigay ng visa sa akin? Thanks po sa inyong lahat.

How to obtain a police certificate - United States

Do I need to provide a police certificate when applying for permanent residence?

Yes, Applicants should provide a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) certificate with fingerprints. State certificates may also be requested. The Visa Office will advise you if state certificates are required in your case.

How and where do I obtain one?

You should:

get a cover letter and fingerprint card from the FBI. You can download these from the FBI website or write to the address below and have them mailed to you.
have fingerprints taken. You can have this done by:
a local police department or
a private fingerprinting business.

(When you have your fingerprints taken, you will need photo identification.)

include a Certified cheque or money order for the fees, payable to the U.S. Treasury
mail the letter, fingerprints and fee payment to:

FBI, Criminal Justice Information Services Division
Attention: SCU, Mod D-2
1000 Custer Hollow Road
Clarksburg, West Virginia 26306
U.S.A.

Processing times are normally between 16 and 18 weeks. The FBI will send you a letter with the results of their record check. That letter will be your police certificate. You should send the letter and any attached documents to the Citizenship and Immigration Canada office processing your file. All police certificates must be originals. Photocopies will not be accepted by our office.
