Does the petioners past effect the benificiary?

[Samanthajayne 0]

Hello Me again,

I have another question about the I130 Visa Interview.

My husband has 2 felonys and got out of jail around 2 years ago.

He has been on the straight and narrow, however he has a bad past.

He has got in trouble for drugs, aggravated robbery etc.

I am quite worried, as Im scared i will not be approved as I was arrested as a minor around 3 years ago.

I recieved a warning for shop lifting, and have not ever got into trouble since.

I have been awake for nights on end, trying to find some reassurance.

I know that they do not take it to seriously, as I was only 17 at the time, and although it was a crime of moral turpitude, as it only happend once and i was underage t shouldnt be a problem. However it was not 5 years ago. It has been just over 3.

Im worried that the officer will look at my husbands past, and then see that i made a mistake at 17, and make judgement on that.

If anyone could help i would appreciate it.

Many Thanks

I think that a juvi record would be sealed and wouldn't come up in your background check but you might want to check that with someone familiar with British records. Maybe someone else knows how Adam Walsh checks deal with the USC?

Hello my name is Shane. I can at least give you the advise my attorney told me. I to have a criminal charge from 11 years ago that was for a stuped bar fight. I got charged with a class C felony. I'm the American citizen getting my wife here from Colombia. From my understanding as a minor it will not effect your Visa process. They check you as a adult. Now if they ask you about this BE Honest. that way they have no reason to deny you, because they want to see if you are honest if they ask. But if it was me I would go down and check into the courts there in your country and see about a expungment or records concealment, To be honest I would not worry for this. In fact you will be fine. But at least check into getting it concealed at least. Now I have a question for you? Did your I-130 get approved due to your husbands record and being in Prison? I'm worried of a minor felony from 11 years ago. My I-130 is pending now.
