[chrisclassic 14]

Okay i have put this story on here before so please dont judge

i am very worried and having many nights of not sleeping

so please keep it nice and honest truth and good or bad news

we recently got our noa2 was very excited were now starting to get everything ready for my medical and eventual interview

my prob is this

i have travelled on the vwp 3 times in the last year not knowing / forgetting about a potential cimt theft of a traffic cone back in 2007 it ended up in a warning for first time offenders as it was very minor ....... finding this out i now know i was not able to use the vwp

im so worried that i will be denied my k1 at the interview because of the cimt (even though im in the exception rule) and missrep due to fraud of vwp and need a waiver

i have all the correct documentation and will be honest in every part of the interview

im so worried but my fiance nicole is full of hope false hope i belive as im a man with very bad luck in life and feel i will be denied and have to do a waiver (i hope this isnt the case)

so could someone please tell me where i stand and but bluntly honest

GUTTED AND NEED HELP

Theft can be considered a crime involving moral turpitude if it was committed with the intent of permanent taking. You would likely need to read the final disposition of the case, or consult with an immigration attorney, to see if this makes you inadmissible to the US as a result, though as you say the "petty offence" exception would probably save you here, even if it was considered a CIMT.

If it is considered as a crime involving moral turpitude then you also committed misrepresentation by not disclosing it on your ESTA application(s).

Since we're talking about theft of a traffic cone then I would imagine you are probably ok, but IANAL.

I'd strongly suggest you speak with an immigration attorney (and perhaps more than one) to have them review the situation.
