I have a friend who is filing for a visa and on her visa application they ask if she has ever been "arrested or convicted of any crime, even subject to pardon, or other similar illegal action..." She was detained for a short while for a traffic accident and the judge let her go because they found that the police and prosecution were corrupt in the situation and that she made no mistakes (except getting into an accident). The said that there wont be a mark on her record. Does she say "yes" or "no"....??? I mean she hit a parked car people...

thanks!

YES, she was arrested. She should answer YES and attach her adjudication if any or an explanation. It will not cause a problem for the visa. Lying about it can cause a big problem.
