Hi everyone, 

 

I'm in the middle of my Lifting Conditions and I haven't been back to Australia since I moved here on my K1 back in 2014. My older sister wants to visit me and we were making plans until recently. She was arrested in Australia 2 weeks ago because she attacked her spouse during an argument and smashed his phone. The Police are pursuing damage of property charges and also placed an Apprehended Violence order on her.  Even if her (now former) spouse drops the charges the police will continue them. This is her first offence.

 

I am assuming that even if she is not imprisoned because of the charges, she will not be eligible for ESTA/Visa Waiver program and she will need to apply for a B-2 tourist visa if she wants to visit me here. So do you have any advice on this and the probability of her being denied?
