Hello Everyone,

I'm not sure if this has been posted yet, but I thought I would throw it on here as a new thread.

As many of you know, the FBI check will be a requirement for American citizens applying for the E-2 visa as of January 1st of this year.

We've recently heard that EPIK will temporarily accept a state level CRC for the recommendation process, but that US applicants should submit the FBI level CRC by December 31st.

So for those of you who are concerned that the process starts Oct 4th, and that your record check won't be done on time, you can use a State Level Check as a temporary replacement. As long as your get your FBI check going immediately (so that you have it by late December), you should be just fine.

Here is the state level info for each state.

Here is the FBI crc check:

My apologies if this has already been posted elsewhere! As always, best of luck to all of you who are applying.

Now if we can submit a state level CBC in the meantime, does that still require for us to send a CBC from every state we have lived in for at least 6 months since we are 18, or can i just submit one for the state i am in now and then send in my federal one when it arrives?
