K1 visa I-129f form criminal info

[Phungo 0]

I am filling a petition for my fiancé and in the form I-129f in part 3 about criminal information. I previously had a felony fraud charge and went to court and before I went to court I spook with the DA with my attorney and the DA withdrew the case before we went into court and I was not fined nor imprisoned or charged. Will I have to list this in the 4. Part and if so do I need to get certified court paper saying it was withdrawn or is that just for the specific listed crime by the USICS like (rape,sex trafficking, prostitution, and minor)

Yes, you must declare any pervious arrests and provide documents that shows the disposition for each. We did the same thing for my petitioner and provided signed court docs with dry seal (DUI).

Hi, yes I did get charge but the case was withdrawn when I went to court and the da withdrew the case before entering a court room. Would I need to provide information for that

Yes you will need to provide any official documents concerning the case including the withdrawal of the charges. Certified copies of these documents are acceptable

What’s considered as certified documents? From court

If available yes. If they're not available there, something from the district attorney's office detailing the disposition of your charge.

My fiancé told me if it was dismissed before court, you can visit the arresting sheriff or police office and see if they have any docs. 
 

If they claim that there's no records too, they must give you a written statement that there were no records found. I remember seeing that from USCIS's RFE letter sent to an applicant last year during my research. I will look for it and share here.
