detained in 2008 ,,

[shaka1]

I WAS DETAINED IN 2008 FOR QUESTIONING ,,, AND WAS RELEASED WITHOUT CHARGE ,,
I APPLIED FOR POLICE CERTIFICATE IN 2010,, AND WAS GIVEN AND IT STATED NO ADVERSE RECORD OF ANY CRIME ,,
NOW THE EMBASSY IS DOING A BACKGROUND CHECK ,,
MY BACKGROUND CHECK IS BEEN DONE AS I SPEAK,,, SHOULD I BE WORRIED,,?
AND HOW LONG DOES SUCH BACKGROUND CHECKS TAKE ?

You shouldn't be worried as long as you informed them on the application. If you answered YES with explanation for question 9 schedule 1 "have you ever been detained or jailed" then you should have no problems.

I have no idea. Every visa office is different as is every applicant .
