Police Clearance for parents I-130/Green card

[ssa1980]

Hi there,

Thank you for reading my question.

I am in a process of wrapping up required documentation for my parents green card and I am stumped at police clearance. My parents live in India and they easily got police clearance from New Delhi. But the USCIS website requires police clearance from Saudi Arabia as my parents lived in Saudi Arabia in mid 1980's. We called Saudi Arabian embassy in New Delhi and they basically said get lost as they don't keep records from 1980's. Do I simply select non available option on the website?

Thanks again,

Yes, the US knows they can’t get them:

Exceptions: Police clearances are unavailable for third country nationals who no longer reside in the Kingdom.
