Re: USA Police Clearance Certs

When you call, how do they track the envelope- they must have huge piles sitting there. Is there a tracking number on the result (in the return reply postal mail)? :fingerscrossed:

Re: USA Police Clearance Certs

Re: USA Police Clearance Certs

Thanks for the feedback.
Not sure what you mean about latest date being July 09. Do you mean the last month you lived in the USA was July 09? Or, the last time you applied was in July 09 and got...

Re: Previous Company Shutdown !!!

Thanks for explaining this. No, I don't doubt the veracity of what the posters are saying...I was just curious why it would be so.
