Getting PCC of other country in the PHILS

[badpusacat]

I need help please especially from those who applied for PCC from the Philippines for countries like Sudan and Saudi Arabia.

My husband worked in both countries before and we're planning to apply for spousal sponsorship. I know that he needs to provide PCC for both countries but he is in the Philippines right now. I just want to ask for other applicants who has/had the same experience.

Thank you!

Hello

I am newbie applicant from the Philippines, I am in the e-APR stage of my application. My husband stayed in Sudan for a year for his stint as a representative from the Philippines in the UN Peacekeeping Mission. We have applied for permanent resident just this year but we were cancelled because we did not provide police certificate for Sudan because we missed the fact that we should provide police certificate for overseas stay for more than 6 months. We did our application on our own and the police certificate was a major oversight. Fortunately I am back on track however I am having a hard time obtaining police certificate from Sudan. The Sudan Consulate in the Philippines told us that they can't provide what we are asking for and that we should go to Sudan personally.

So my husband went to the nearest embassy of Sudan abroad and that is Malaysia. My husband flew to Malaysia just to get a police certificate. He submitted his fingerprints and all other requirements and they said they would sent it to the Ministry of Interior in Sudan to be processed, however until now, there is no clear indication that we can get the police certificate on time. We emailed them but we only got an automatic reply and nothing else even after a month. We called the Sudan Embassy Malaysia exactly a month after my husband processed his police certificate (which is also challenging because of the communication barrier) and he was told that they have not sent the documents to the Ministry of Interior, Sudan. We called again a week after then they said that they have already sent it and we should call them after two weeks. The person from the Embassy also told us if we have somebody in Sudan to make a follow up on our police certificate but we don't know anyone there.

Ma'am, I would like to know how you get through the difficulty of getting a police certificate in Sudan. I only have 30 more days left and until now I am not sure if I can get the police certificate on time. I hope you can share your experience....many thanks
