Obtaining Police Clearance from the US/FBI

hotshothotshot SydneyPosts: 1,643Member
edited May 2012 in General
Tanong ko lang po sana kung meron na ba dito naka-try makahingi ng police clearance from FBI while outside the US? Nabasa ko kasi na pwedeng i-mail sa kanila yung mga fingerprints and other documents pero hindi naka-mention dun kung nagme-mail ba sila ng clearance to addresses outside the US.

Kung meron na po nakasubok, baka pwede niyo naman po share kung pano kayo nagrequest at kung gaano katagal bago nyo nakuha. TIA!

    Step 1. hanapin mo sa FBI website yung police clearance request. nandun yung details ng fomrs na kelangan mo i-fill up. If I'm not mistaken, may 3 forms kang kelangan isubmit:
    a. requestor details
    b. fingerprint card
    c. payment form

    step 2. fill up yung forms

    step 3. punta ka sa PNP crime lab para magpafingerprint (pwede mo gawin by yourself, pero sa experience ko sa PNP crime lab sa crame, they will do it better than you can, trust me)

    step 4. nisend ko via DHL yung request, pero yung pagpappadalhan nila ng result is US address for me. pwedeng ipadala sa philippine address din but you need to secure/pay for return correspondence (I dont know how to go around this, kaya sa US ko na pinadala)

    step 5. wait for 4-8 weeks daw for the results

    thanks @itchan for the info. pahabol na tanong lang po sana hehehe...

    1) yung sa inyo, pinadala sa US address po di ba? after nun, yung friend/family nyo sa US na nagscan tapos inemail na lang sa inyo and scanned copy?

    2) yung fingerprint card, pwede bang i-print ko na lang ang softcopy dun sa website sa isang plain paper? or kelangan talaga sa "card" nakaprint?

    FAQs: http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/background-checks/faqs

    6. Can I use the fingerprint card I download from this site?

    Yes. The FBI will accept the downloaded paper fingerprint card only for the purpose of requesting an FBI Identification Record. If you go to a law enforcement agency or private fingerprinting agency to be fingerprinted, they may prefer to use a fingerprint card on standard card stock. You may use the fingerprint card provided by the printing agency.

    1. yes - pero di pa dumarating sa kanila (kamaganak ko) ung clearance ko... 4th week ko palang ata to since I sent my request (up to 8 wks daw processing, not sure if that includes shipping)

    2. tama yung nisend na link ni lock code, yun ang dapat na gamiting fingerprint card... though I think standard naman ang hitsura ng fingerprint card, including ung sukat ng blocks na nilalagyan ng fingerprint, specific to FBI yung mga labels/headings nung fingerprint card na madodownload mo from that site.

    para po sa mga nagaabang ng FBI clearance....tumawag kami to inquire about the mailing of FBI clearances. sabi ng FBI, pwede raw ipa-priority mailing para mabilis pero kelangan meron tayong account sa fedex. ibibigay lang daw natin ang fedex account number sa kanila tapos ipapa-mail na lang daw nila thru fedex. fyi. :)

    i went to campe crame today for fingerprinting... they are very accommodating... i paid 200 pesos for the fingerprint.. i used the fingerprint form from them.. another requirement is you need to have 2pcs. 2x2 picture... i would really suggest to get your fingerprint either from crame or nbi.. this will reduce the risk of fingerprints that cannot be read by fBI...

    you said, you used the fingerprint from them, you mean Crame's own form?
    are you not supposed to use the FBI form for the fingerprint?
    pwede nyo sya idownload sa fbi website...

    just asking..

    @angelmar17 Thanks sis! Dun ko papuntahin si hubby.

    Question pa sis :)
    1. Yung standard fingerprint form (FD-258) na nasa FBI website, did you print it? If yes, what kind of paper, kasi if ma-i-ink hindi pwde ordinary bond paper diba? Or did they use their own fingerprint form sa camp crame?

    2. How long bago mo natanggap yung FBI? Based sa timeline mo, more than 1 month?

    Thanks ulit! :)
