When is Background check?
Yeah, I really AM turning into my own worst enemy... Just when I think there's nothing left for me to obsess over, I think of something new....
When do they do the background check on my UK spouse? With the I-130 in VSC, or with the DS-230 in NVC? Or is his "police clearance certificate" or whatever it is from Scotland Yard, which is clear, sufficient at the interview? The reason I ask is because my spouse has a fairly common name, and I'm curious to see how long it will take to do a name check or whatever... He's not been convicted of anything, as evidenced by his police form... What else would they need to check... but most importantly, When?
Thanks.

Re: When is Background check?
My understanding is that they will check at various levels. There will be several IBIS name checks, and the US Consulate will definitely do a name check with the FBI. If there is a hit, they will call your spouse in for fingerprinting to clear it up.
Does your spouse know that they married an obssessive-complusive personality?
