I 129 F part C, please help!

[jjsa 0]

dear all,

my fiance and i are preparing our I 129 F package but we are having some trouble with part C on the I 129 F, petition for alien fiancé(e). my fiance (the u.s citizen) was once convicted for a minor, non violent incident that resulted in a domestic disorderly conduct, which was amdended down to an ordinance. however, when we look up the court case online, the case is still mentioned as criminal.

the instructions of the I 129 F state that the "term "domestic violence" includes felony or misdemeanor crimes of violence committed by a current or former spouse of the victim, by a person with whom the victim shares a child in common, by a person who is cohabitating with or has cohabitated with the victim as a spouse, by a person similarly situated to a spouse of the victim under the domestic or family violence laws of the jurisdiction receiving grant monies, or by any other person against an adult or youth victim who is protected from that person's acts under the domestic or family violence laws of the jurisdiction".

personally, i do not think we need to add it as it is amended down to an ordinance, but we still worry about it. we already called several institutions and also USCIS itself, who is not able to give legal advice on this.

do you think we need to add this case to the part C section on I 129 F? please help! we would really appreciate your answer.

Yes you list it. They were convicted, and yes amended down but the original conviction is still on the record. Attach a note describing the
