EvilMonkey 0 Posted July 5, 2013 Hello everyone! I really need some advice! My boyfriend is getting ready to send his package to USCIS, but we are scared he won't get approved. When he was young he was beyond stupid and got charged with illegal possession of alcohol under the age of 21. Twice. We went to the public records office and got his records and wrote an explanation of what happened, BUT he was also charged with possession of marijuana (did I mention he was stupid when he was young?) but that charge was dismissed. Now we can't find any information on that case and we called the DA's office and they reassured us it was dismissed. My question is should we mention the marijuana charge in the form? I feel like we should, but we can't find any paperwork on it and USCIS states that you can't have three or more misdemeanors, and this would make his third. I'd talk to a lawyer, but honestly we don't have the money for it. Any advice? Or can anyone share their experience if they've gone through something similar? Has any of you gotten applied with three misdemeanors? Should we just forget about this whole thing and not send the package? I wanna kick his young self in the head for being such an idiot, but alas I can't. Thanks so much for any input. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rawf 336 Posted July 5, 2013 If the case was dismissed, then it would be no problem. All you have to do is get the proof of the case dismissal and send that along with everything else. I wouldn't mention it directly, it is their job to look at the documents someone sends and they cannot deny you without sending you an RFE, if only if your boyfriend really qualifies for DACA. The charges are not a reason to be denied, but they are going to RFE him if he doesn't send proof of case dismissal, with an RFE the case will be put on hold until you send the information they want from you. Good luck and keep us updated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EvilMonkey 0 Posted July 5, 2013 Thank you so much. I'll tell him to contact the DA's office and ask for proof that the case was dismissed. I will sure keep you updated. PS:And I just realized I said "applied" instead of "approved" in my OP. Sorry about that. lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
