Okay my lawyer got the paper today!! This is so stupid,They had me sign a paper stating I had never been convicted of a crime!! LOL You mean to tell me they can not look that up??? I have a clean record I havent even had a traffic ticket! My lawyer and i was talking and it could be because my Ex wife turned into a drug dealling crack #######! Maybe because she is my EX they wanted me to sign some thing stating i have never been convicted,but still they should be able to look at my record? They are the government? Dont they have computers??And besides that stuff happened after we splite up!! Thats why we are not together HELLO!!!

Anyway my lawyer mailed it out tonight and we should know by the first of next week!! Lets all hope

That's progress at least! Hopefully you will get your approval soon after they get the letter! Good luck!

Thanks sweety.And Im so sorry that its draging on for you too.Trust me its murder for us too.Its like they have it in front of us and say NOp not yet, but if you jump here Ill think about it! Its hell because no yes or no just need you to sign this. Ill be depressed for a year if i go this fare and they say No!.

It is murder! Mental murder! And noooo don't think that way...just think of it as a speed bump, and from here on out smooth cruising

Did it ask you if you'd never been convicted of a crime in general? That wouldn't make sense... only certain crimes render one ineligible to petition for an alien fiancee. You could have stolen as many cars as you wanted and they couldn't deny you. Not that I'm saying you steal cars, I'm just saying if you did...

Anyway, was it this text?

2. Have you ever been convicted by a court of law (civil or criminal) or court martialed by a military tribunal for any of the following crimes:

• Domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse and neglect, dating violence, elder abuse or stalking. (Please refer to page 3 of the instructions for the full definition of the term "domestic violence.)
• Homicide, murder, manslaughter, rape, abusive sexual contact, sexual exploitation, incest, torture, trafficking, peonage, holding hostage, involuntary servitude, slave trade, kidnapping, abduction, unlawful criminal restraint, false imprisonment or an attempt to commit any of these crimes, or
• Three or more convictions for crimes relating to a controlled substance or alcohol not arising from a single act.

Answering this question is required even if your records were sealed or otherwise cleared or if anyone, including a judge, law enforcement officer, or attorney, told you that you no longer have a record. Using a separate sheet(s) of paper, attach information relating to the conviction(s), such as crime involved, date of conviction and sentence.

That's Part C, #2 on page 3 of the I-129F. A lot of people forget to tick "no," and it generates an RFE. This is a fairly common one, as I understand it.

Yes it just asked me if I have every been convicted of any of this crimes?? And there was a list of them! I was like you are joking right?? My lawyer said this is great news if this is all they want LOL. I did not think it was funny.

From what I hear it's a common mistake, it's a little tiny box that is very easy to overlook. You should be laughing! Better to laugh than cry, and it's a simple thing...thank God I probably wouln't of appreciated him laughing either since he's being paid to check you documents...but there's nothing you can do about that now. It will be fine, you'll see!

Yes Im happy thats all it was but you are right,I was not happy because I payed him to make sure it was done right,but now I read that lawyers make more mistakes with this stuff then if we do it our self.I think its because he has nothing invested,its not any body he loves so he could care less as long as your check clears.

My ex is a legal secretary.. the lawyers do little to nothing.. she does the whole thing and in some cases wrote his presentations to the court.. (what would be said to the jury or judge...) so the mistake was likely the legal assistants mistake... sucks that your relationship is likely in the hands of someone making 10 or 12 bucks an hour and not the attorney that was hired.. but thats how they do things...

Congrats, that is good new for April, now if they would just get into all of Aprils before they go back into May, soon May will catch up to us in the amount approved, I hope there is 30 people working today and each one of them opens one of each of our files, approve them, then we can all be happy together, good luck all that is waiting as I am.
