Yes the right and correct record was submitted along with the other doc and my passport as they requested. Yes on ds 160 i told the truth and at the interview as well. All they wanted is 2 missing doc 1 is which court record and passport back. Someone said they would have denied at interview but they didnt and asking for missing documents and my passport back thats a good sign so idk..

 

Were you charged ? In the same boat ?

 

As far as denying a visa is concerned, if you have presented everything truthfully and correctly then that's the max you can do. They have to make a decision based on their own parameters. I am positive if the case was dismissed and all then you should be OK 👍 

 

I am not in the same boat but recently had a discussion with a petitioner who was actually incarcerated for over 3 years in a federal prison on a federal charge (conspiracy) and he was able to get his beneficiary here without any issue. They grilled the daylights out of her asking her/telling her about the minute details of his criminal history but in the end the visa was issued based on their relationship being considered bona-fide.

The petitioner having a criminal record is less of an issue (unless it's Adam Walsh related): they will grill as.a means of ensuring the beneficiary knows who they are marrying.

 

A beneficiary having a criminal record is different.  The information is less about the relationship being bonafide and more - in my opinion - about trying to figure out if the beneficiary would be a criminal risk once in  the US.

I mean people get arrested all the time and anyone can get arrested even if innocent and people also get falsely charge for something they didnt do. I dont think a charge would cause such issue if case was dismissed as it was mentioned to the judge showing the person is innocent.. Isnt it suppose to be more difficult if was convicted, fined or sentenced ? 

 

I know no one can tell the outcome, only the officer, but i 

Really trying to find out if anyone here been through this and got visa and how did the consular reacted to the dismissed case.

Completely different situation for a USC with a record vs an alien with a record wanting a visa…..
