Marriage Visa New requirements for Form 13-A permenant residence visa

I read about this new requirement on another forum ("Living in the Philippines") when someone in Davao ran into it.

For anyone who's a US citizen, I posted some info back in February on getting a US clearance in the following thread (it's the last post). Don't be thrown off by the fact it's an "SRRV" thread, the police clearance part applies to both types of visa:

It seems like its just for new visas, so I guess I will be ok

 

I was in Intermuros earlier this week.
The BI attorney confirmed that the Police Clearance from your home country is only for new applicants.
So that is good news for a lot of folks.

 

Applicants of what? Please specify. Thx

 

The visa I applied for was a Form 13-A permenant residents visa.

The title of this thread is: New requirements for Form 13-A permenant residence visa

Hi Davy. This earlier post ( Link below ) from hawk263 mentions police clearance in the UK.

Just finalized r-mil traffic about a Police Clearance in my home country (The Netherlands). It appears I need an in-between (luckily i found one) to go to the City Hall with my application, copy of passport and letter of authorization to apply for my "Letter of Good Conduct". Once returned to my in-between, it wil be mailed to an official translator who will get the "Apostille" from the court where she has been registered as an official translator. The documents will then be returned to my in-between by mail (registered). When that is accomplished, both documents (Dutch and English translation) are then mailed to the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs for authentication and returned (by mail) to my in-between. Then 2 copies of both documents and a copy of my passport need to be send to the Philippine Embassy in The Hague for further authentication. Once that has been accomplished my in-between can mail the documents back to me for use during my application for a permanemt visa. It goes without saying that the whole process is time-consuming, laborious and, most importantly: costly! I assume it will cost me at least 150 - 200 Euros, without compensation for my in-between. The whole process sounds a bit like a slogan the Duth Internal Revenue could use: 'We cannot make it more pleasant, but we can make it more costly!

Just my two cents here.
