Thanks Good luck, I know it can be difficult when you're working on it from a third country. According to the State Dept Reciprocity Schedule: http://travel.state.gov/visa/frvi/reciprocity/reciprocity_3673.html Police Records Available. The Spanish police certificate is known in Spain as “Certificado de Antecedentes Penales.” If you are a Spanish national residing in Spain, you may apply in person or by mail at the Ministry of Justice, San Bernardo 45, 28071, Madrid. If you are a Spanish national living outside of Spain, you should apply through the Spanish Consulate in the country where you are currently living. Third country nationals (TCN) legally living in Spain must apply at the Ministry of Justice, San Bernardo 45, 28071 Madrid. A TCN illegally living in Spain is unable to obtain a police certificate. If you are a former legal TCN currently living outside of Spain, contact the consulate of your nationality in Spain. (Example: Italians should contact the Italian Consulate in Madrid). If Spain does not have a reciprocal agreement with this country, a police certificate is not available. A list of countries having reciprocal agreements with Spain is not available. Applicants must check with each individual consulate regarding their country's reciprocal agreement status. If you are a former illegal TCN currently living outside of Spain, you cannot obtain a police clearance. Spanish citizens must contact the Spanish Embassy in their country of residence to request a Spanish Police Certificate. The Spanish Embassy will provide them with more specific information. Non-Spanish Former Residents of Spain: Non-Spanish former residents of Spain applying outside Spain must contact their respective countries' embassy in Madrid, Spain. The embassy should then contact the Spanish Ministry of Justice if that country has a reciprocal agreement with Spain for police certification. The address for the Spanish Ministry of Justice is: Ministerio De Justicia Registro Central de Penados y Reveldes C/San Bernardo 45, 28071 Madrid, Spain Non-Spanish Citizens Living Illegally in Spain: Police certificates are unavailable for non-Spanish citizens living illegally in Spain. There are no alternatives available for visa applicants needing Spanish Police Certificates who live illegally in Spain.

Thanks for the information. That's pretty complicated! We'll work on it! Sounds like it's going to take awhile! > On Jun 28, 2:41 pm, meau...@yahoo.com wrote: > [quoted text clipped - 63 lines] > > - Show quoted text - NONE of the above suggestions worked and none of the suggestions on the BCIS website worked. Finally, the K3 called the Chilean Ambassador in Madrid, from her home in Santiago. The Ambassador himself answered the phone because the locals were on vacation! He informed there was no program(s) via the Chilean Embassy to assist on the matter, made a few calls and reported that the application/letter should come from the Police Chief of the city itself. So the K3 called a cousin who went over the the police department in Barcelona and they knew exactly what was needed. But to get the letter the Police needed power of attorney from the K3 which was easy. 4 more to go. This is a difficult requirement. |
