Needing some advise about security checks, that are done during the I-130 process? I'm the person getting my wife here from Bogotá, Colombia. I'm 32 years old and I have one prior conviction from when I was 21 years old from a stupid bar fight with a guy's night out. As embarrassed to admit my past stupidity I need to at least gain knowledge?

I have been told that they are mainly focused on my wife in an I-130 petition. I did not sign anything being able to disclose my conviction from 11 years ago. The advice I was given was to not file a K-3 status for the being of the prior conviction in 1996. That way I would not have to disclose my conviction and worry of administrative decision or any delays.

Does anyone have any ideas or advice and knowledge of the process of the I-130 process? Should I even worry of this?

God bless & thank you,
