Hello, 

 

My husband and I are scheduled for our CR-1 interview next week. When he pulled his police record it showed an open case. He found out it was for an issue he was arrested almost 5 years ago that was dropped but, it was still showing open in the system. 

 

He had given some friends a ride home from a party that he had attended with mutual friends when they were pulled over. The friends were in possession of a small amount of marijuana. They were all taken to the police station, questioned and had to meet with a judge the next morning. The judge basically let my husband go as he advised he had no knowledge they had marijuana. She also saw he had no prior records, was in school and holding a steady job. Nothing ever came of it until now when he pulled the police record.  He went through the proper steps and got the information removed as he had never been charged or convicted of anything so now the police record is clean and the arrest has been removed.  He also has court records etc., showing he was cleared of all and not involved. He disclosed it on the application however, our fear is he will be questioned about it during the interview and possibly denied since the arrest involved drugs. I have also read even if charged dropped immigration still looks at it as a conviction if it involves drugs? Anyone been in a similar situation? What was the outcome? Please advise.
