deferred prosecution for class 4 misdeameanor DV

[pokernut 0]

I have a DV case for spanking my kids... no DV against spouse... or anyone else... I had to go to 4 parenting classes...

normally the sentance on that is a year or so of DV classes and anger management... I could have beat it had i gone to trial, but i just wanted the stupid thing over...

i didnt realize i was going to be filing for a k-1 or maybe a k-3 visa... for my girlfriend in another country...

so this is technically not a conviction.... any thoughts on this??

my ex-wife also got a restraining order against me, but i havent been served... I have never threatened her..

how hard is it to get one of those orders anyways...??? what sort of proof to they have to have and can i get it over-turned... what a joke

pokernut,

You would be better served by contacting and consulting with, an immigration attorney.

Technically it is a conviction. But if all you have is one, don't worry. Just get the court records and write a letter with it explaining it.

I had a DV against my ex father-in-law who lived with us. It's off my record now but not according to the Govt. I still had to report it. The courts in this country are so full of shiiit.

My ex actually had one against her for throwing a DVD case at me. That's all it takes in Michigan. It's ridiculous! It's all about $$$ and them keeping busy enough to justify their jobs.

You don't even need a waiver if all you had is one Misdemenor DV.

And a restraining order is easy to get. I had a PPO against my ex becoz of her extreme shiit even after she moved out.

It may slow it down a bit, who knows. They took 3 months to finally approve mine after they got my RFE. They gave no reason other then an officer is reviewing it.

Just be truthful about it, don't hide anything, and follow the requirements on the I-129F form. It is indeed a conviction, and they will find the arrest record when the run the FBI Triple I check on you. Restraining Orders/Protection Orders/Injunctions are databased as well.
