existing product.
VO : What do you do
Me : i am a quality analyst and my job is to audit the work done by the agents in my

Handed over my passport to me with a form which stated 221(G) additional documents required
VO : Okay you will need to submit Police certificate from your regional passport office
along with your passport and the 221(G) form given to you
Me : Okay thank you
on that day itself i reached my regional passport office where i got info that to obtain a
police certificate you need to apply online
Researched on internet about how to obtain police certificate and then was really very
worried coz information was you can obtain your Police certificate either in one day or
might it take long time if police verification is needed and the approx time was 3 to 4
weeks or may be 6 weeks
so one of my friend told me to take help of agent
i contacted the agent asking him to help me to get me Police certificate coz i have very
less time to get my visa to fly USA
he has taken a good amount from me and applied for me on 6th jan and on the same day
evening i got my appointment confirmation for police certificate
on 7th i reached regional passport office for my appointment with all the documents stated
by the agent
where on first counter i got my coupen code and there was 3 counters A B and C
on A counter i got my photo clicked and documents submitted
On B counter the person told me that you will need to submit an affidavit coz you are
married and you dont have your spouse name on your passport although i had a nikah nama
which is a marriage proof for me he didnt accepted it alone he said you will need to submit
and affidavit which is annexure D along with your nikah nama
i then told my agent that they are asking me annexure D then my agent told me to come
tommorrow i will make it for you dont worry
on 8th jan again i gone for my Police certificate at regional passport office with all my
documents where they have given me a receipt stating police verification is needed
i told my agent about this then he suddenly backed of now stating for that you will need to
struggle at your nearest police station now to get it done
then on 8th jan itself my file was reached at my nearest police station
on 9th i directly gone to meet police verification officer to get it done immediately
he confirmed me that he will do it in 2days dont worry please submit all the required
documents
i submitted all the documents then and there and on 11th jan my police verification was
done at my home by his officer visit
but after that i thought it was done i waited for 2 days but was calling the officer many
times and going at police station as he was not picking up my call he then told me after 2
days that his senior police officer sign is pending so before that he cannot forward the
file to regional passport office
every day i use to go to police station asking whether it is done or not but every time the
officer told me that the sign is pending i even told him do you need money he said no he
does not have it in his hand to get the sign done coz the senior officer is busy
then after 2 weeks of my struggle my dad got a reference through which i got a sign talking
directly to senior officer explaining her how imp it is for me to get this verification done
i got the file singed by her and then on 18th jan i got sms to collect the Police
