I've searched all over the web and I'm still confused.

Are background checks done on the US citizen for CR-1/IR-1 visa aplications?

I've learned that background checks are done for the K1/K3 applications (which includes form I-129F). For the CR-1 application it is less clear. Are US citizen background checks done as a matter of routine for all spousal visa applicants?

Any information is appreciated.

Absolutely, my husbands whole sordid past showed up (even if he was just arrested and the charges were dropped it still showed up). They asked me about it to make sure I knew, and thats about it though. It doesnt really impact the visa, they just want to make sure the beneficiary knows what their spouse is all about.

Invictus..

Out of the night that covers me,

Black as the Pit from pole to pole,

I thank whatever gods may be

For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance

I have not winced nor cried aloud.

Under the bludgeonings of chance

My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears

Looms but the Horror of the shade,

And yet the menace of the years

Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,

How charged with punishments the scroll.

I am the master of my fate:

I am the captain of my soul.

William Ernest Henley
