I am canadian, working at u.s. for 3 years, now married to a u.s. citizen. I am not sure about the concept of police clearance. Do we need this for green card application?
 
Thank you Bigjoe5 for your quick answer.

I had been worked at u.s. before. But I back to canada last year for a while. I met my current husband by internet, then I met him at u.s as a tourist, we visited each other between canada and u.s., Now we got married at u.s. and plan to apply for green card. My status now is marrying u.s. citizen as a canadian tourist. ( is it a problem for applying for green card?)

Do I need fingerprint for I-485 application? if so, where should I do for it? I did fingerprint in canada 5-6 years ago when I applied to be a canadian citizen, if that fingerprint still work,how can I get such document from canada?
 
You don't ned to submit a document with your fingerprints. When you apply for a AOS to get a greencard, you would get a letter requesting you to go to one of the USCIS offices (normally one near you) to go and have your Biometics taken as part of the proccess. So don't worry about looking that document.
 
Thank Ronnyi,

congraculations for getting your green card in 3 months. i am curious that whether you did gc application yourself or by an attorney. I just want to let somebody to review our appliation before we mail it....any suggestions? Thanks.
 
Mine was filled out by an immigration specialist, he wasn't an attorney but that's what he does for a living. I guess that's why my proccess went through so quickly and without a single problem
