Police Reports
Hi, my fiancee has just posted off the forms from the states and now we wait. So what I am wondering about is this:
Since I was 16 I have lived in London, Lyon, Hamburg, and Takamatsu in Japan, as far as the police report is concerned am I going to have to get police reports from all of those countries?

Re: Police Reports
Just to clarify, the emphasis is on the word "lived". If you went to school if a foreign country, for example, and maintained a permanent address in some other country, then you did not "live" in the country where you attended school. Okay... hope this helps.

He was still required to have a police report from Turkey, even though he was never considered a resident there, i.e., living there.
Just wanted to mention my scenario.

Re: Police Reports
well the ball has been set rolling; I have emailed the German embassy and am waiting for a reply. I have already spoken to the French embassy and now have to relevant forms. I spoke to the Japanese embassy and they want me to go get finger printed at a police station over here and then send my prints back to Japan. Hmmm, I wonder why that would be? I am guessing that they will probably try to match my prints to unsolved crimes in Japan. The Japanese tend to feel that foreigners are the greatest source of crime in their homeland.
The French one will take 2 weeks or so, but the one from Japan will take at least two months. I know it has to get there but come on...
