hi....I have a question in regards to "criminal records"..My fiance, along with several others, had his identity stolen 3 years ago from a former employer. The employer used several of his employees debit cards to defraud customers. Currently, he is working with a lawyer to clear his name. It is taking longer than expected because the person who is being convicted does not show up for court appearance. Both the judge and my fiances lawyer indicated that it was okay for him to leave the country, as long as he appears in court during the next scheduled hearing in order to testify. His lawyer said that he can still apply for the visa, however, it might give us a red flag to know hes involved in a trial. The process has been a long one, there hasnt been any court appearances since last year and none are set until next March. Do you think this would affect our case? He has no criminal record or police reports.

Thanks in advance for your help

Was your fiance formally sued or charged in Peru? I guess it depends on what information will appear on his police and court records.

It sounds like your fiance is the victim rather than the offender in this case. I think he should be ok, specially if nothing negative will be on his records. If a question ever comes up during the visa process that will make him mention this case, either when you are completing forms or at the interview, then having supporting documentation is always a good idea. From what the judge and lawyer told your fiance, that should be no problem. Good luck!
