If you get the polie cert be sure to go through the met police as the Scottish one will not suffice

Mr Peace

Dear Alanmacc,

Thanks for your concerns regarding the issuing authority, however my question is to know if an applicant can submit a copy of the Police Clearance Certificate from their original country of Citizenship. We do have ready our UK subject access request ready.The reason why I ask this is because my dependent's Police Clearance Certificate (original) has been delayed in the post from her country of Citizenship.

Still waiting for Howden40 or someone expert who could advise me regarding this matter. Just working out a way around the issue.

Regards

Peace

I really would check with NZ London on that, it may be worth the few pounds phone call. They say in the ITA letter to contact them if for any reason you can't provide them with all the evidence they need within the 4 month timescale. You may get an email address to send the scanned copy to to show proof of origin. I have like others have said on here tried to provide them with exactly what they have asked for, I don't think there can be any grey areas with the application. Good Luck with it all.

Hi there, well done on getting your ITA.

You mention that you have your Police Clearance Certificate from your country of citizenship, is that for the UK or not? You will need a certificate from every country you have lived in for 12 months or more for the past 10 years. Also if the certificate is in a language other than English you will need to have it translated. All the documents you hand in must be originals or certified copies and that includes the Police Certificate.

For police certificates for the uk you can print off the form here and send it in by post:

Regarding work experience, what I did was send in the copies of my contracts for my current post which gave starting date, end date, title of job and some description of the job. For my previous jobs I contacted the employers asking for a reference also stating the start date, end date, title and brief description. One of my qualifications was directly related to the job as well, so the certificate for that also proved my experience.

As I live in London I took the ITA application in to NZ House myself and the person who saw me there and lodged my application said it all looked fine.

I hope this helps! Any more questions do ask.

Dear All,

Thanks for the replies. I have recieved the required certificates and now the main issue which is making me nervous is my wife's birth certificate as she is from India. Where can I get it translated in the UK and quickly (ASAP)
