Finally found out why k1 was refused the letter from embassy mentions 212(a)2(A)(i) which says general criminal history (my fiance' had an assault charge where he paid 10000JMD fine or 6 months imprisonment He did not do any jail time and was two year ago that was expunged).  The letter mentioned filing a waiver which is $930 form 601.  Do I need an attorney now?    Or should we get just married wait and reapply for CR1 or either way we would have to file the waiver 601? It was a minor crime but guess considered moral turpitude? the INA says certain amount time has to pass for some violations but those crime were habitual offenders or a year or more jail time. Any advice please??

I file I601 since 2016 they asked for additional information sent it .I only received notice to say they received it ,since then nothing check case status same info nothing change . Any advice .

if it was expunged it should not have shown up but the real problem is they did not disclose this at all and the OP did not know about it

my response is "HOw can she trusgrt shee kneows what he said is true about the case"    and yes ,  i have many family also in law enforcement and several degreees of assault / we don't even know if it gang related or why he was convicted 

but he was not honest with her / that is the real issue

how can she trust?

Does "I really love you"  worked when the relationship starts out with a lie as OP stated she just found out?

I believe you can only expunge arrests and a few convictions.  Assault may not be expendable depending on local laws.  If convicted the expunging process can be very very difficult, if not impossible.  Expungement is to help those arrested and not convicted from having a record.  Do they expunge in Jamaica?

Whether they do or not is irrelevant to an immigration case.
