Frequently Asked Questions

I need help in a court case in India. Can someone at the Embassy act as my representative? Or at least help to speed the process along?  No, unfortunately. We strongly advise that you hire the services of an attorney in India who can act as your legal representative in this case. They will be able provide you the answers you seek and can also take steps to speed up the process. While the Embassy will try its best to assist in this matter, you must understand that our resources are limited, and that our staff must devote their efforts to helping Americans in immediate danger in India. While we wish to see a positive resolution to your case, the Embassy cannot act as your legal representative and you shouldn't count on us to continually pass messages to police or attorneys involved in this case or do investigate the status of your case on a regular basis. We simply do not have the authority or the resources to do this.

I need a criminal record check for the time I spent in the United States. What do I do? 

LOCAL POLICE CHECK: Go to your local police department where you last resided in the United States, request that the police conduct a criminal records search and provide you with a document reflecting that there is no history of a criminal record. Local police departments may require your personal appearance in order to conduct the search. Your local police department can phrase this in whatever way they deem appropriate. The document should then be authenticated for use abroad following our guidance on authentication or legalization of documents.
