Rockgurl:

I can't answer as to if you need a police certificate or not. However, this is on the US Embassy in London's website and tells you how to obtain one. It is my understanding that the police certificate shows whats officially on your "record."

Trying to be helpful!

You still need to mention the arrest and provide whatever evidence you
have that no charges were filed. What an arrest record is and where you
get one depends on the country where this happened. The first place to try
and find it is the police station where this happened.

Worst case, you could sign an affidavit stating that there is no
documentation, and/or get such an affidavit from the police.

Thanx Ingo...it happened in London, UK. I have no records or any paperwork whatsoever. I don't think the police will give out police paperwork but I'll call them. This is the first I've ever heard of it and I've been on this board for ages! It's typical I find out about it just 3 weeks before my interview! Yikes!

Thanx Trinity, but I already got my police certificate and it's clear. As far as I understand it, not everything shows up on your police check. This is so confusing!

See if you can get in writing that there is no paperwork. That should be
enough.

Good luck!
