You can get it done at one of the main the police stations on your island or check with the Criminal Investigation Department. Ensure you take the email or letter you received from POS, two photographs, proof of address and your passport. They should be able to do it immediately for you. Goodluck my friend!

Congrats! Now it's off to the slow POS office.. lol. They gave me so much hope when they were movin right along in December and now that the new year is upon us they are back to their slow selves lol.

No news from me.. waiting for my "in process" or an email from them.. Not holding my breath. From our spreadsheet, I'm next in "line" but since they process in any order at any speed, I am trying not to get overly hopeful.

Good to see someone with some news!

When is your interview?

Since you are going through SW, I assume they will be asking you about your work experience, skills and qualifications?

Congrats on hearing something from POS!
