I was just reading that in case of a criminal record, it is recommended to get a lawyer....does a DUI (the US citizen, 2 years old, active military for 10 yrs, SEAL)fall in that category???

We sent out our I-129F out last week and have not received NOA1, nor has the check been cashed (i know this is still within the normal timeframe)....

What do you guys think we should do? Just wait?

I am so worried now.

nothing to worry about, as long as you paid the fine/completed community service. K1 visas r more concerned with homicide and domestic violence related crimes. You should be fine. There is no need for a lawyer just because you have a DUI.

You need to read it closer. 3 or more convictions involving a controlled substance or alcohol. Or a felony. Was this a felony DUI?

No, this was his first ever, and he could even plead down to something lower, I believe. I have to ask him again for the exact term...he paid his fines, and everything was off the table last year already. So, no felony DUI, no controlled substances ever.
