Hi,

I am searching the process to get FBI finger printing.

Is there any professional services available near NJ to get it done? Anyone know...

If need to go thr local police stations, how do we get the FBI card? I am confused that how to print the FBI card after downloading from their websitesite, means what type of Paper or card.. or the local police station provide those cards.......

Is there any email address available to request FBI card from their website or we need to send post to request card?



Please share your experience??
 
You can download form from FBI site, print it and take it with you as backup option. Sometimes police stations have their card which they will use for finger printing. In my case (not NJ), we used the FBI web printout form to apply and get the clearance.

do a search on google to see if there are NJ specific rules or offices other than polic station or call up a police station to find out.
 
I have applied for Pre-assesment on Dec 3 2008, I didn't hear back from the immigration. Anybody on same boat?
 
I applied at the same date as well, the package didn't arrive yet, i emailed them and they replied yesterday that they sent it out on January 14, so i should be receiving it soon. I would suggest that you wait until Monday, if u don't get anything email them. Hope that helped

Thanks SS123,

Since already wasted lot of time and the nearest police station provide the finger printing services only on specific dates during weeks... found Mobile Finger printing Services and just sent everything to FBI.... ofcourse its expensive....... just to save time......

If anyone in NJ need mobile finger printing services let me know, will provide their address.

Thanks
 
Hi,

I am gathering documents to send Buffalo office at CIC stage.

1) Is it mandatory to get Notarization of Birth Certificate, Marriage Certificate? Unfortunately Me and my wife birth certificates are in Home Country and thinking to get both Original is time consumption and risk.. If they agreed photocopies, easy to get scanning page.. I dont see anywhere in CIC website or Instructions to fill the applications saying that Notarization of Birth Certificates. Not sure am i missing something or not?

2) Anybody sent the applications without Police Clearance Certificate from Home Country so far? Its time consuming process and they are saying 40-60 days.. Is that advisable to wait till to get Police clearance from Home Country or to send applications now will send police certifcate latter....

Please share ur experiences/and shed some lights to proceed further....

Thanks
 
Hi,

I am planning to apply for AINP. I am wondering if anyone can help me with following questions:

(1) I noticed that along with the AINP009 form, the certified photocopy of passport, h1b and diploma are needed. How did you certify those documents in US?

(2) My job title is "Senior R&D engineer" from the job offer letter and "Senior Software Engineer" from the H1B application. Which job title would be better for applying under NOC 2171?

Thanks in advance!

Nathan
 
go to a bank or even companies have notaries ( typically some admins) that can notarize or certify copies..

Nathan,

Take them to your bank along with originals... they will notarize for free

My suggestion would be to go with Senior Software Engineer since "Senior RD Eng" sounds generic
