My solicitor said the only records they have are the common assaults, which they say is a section 37 which is the same as pushing someone apparently. She said they also...

Re: Visiting my girlfriend in the US with a UK criminal record.

Hello again, thanks for getting back to me.
My girlfriend also mentioned getting married too rather than the k1. But she believes the k1 is the quicker visa to get? Is that right?
Also, once all...

Re: Visiting my girlfriend in the US with a UK criminal record.

​​​​​​Am I right in thinking that my chances of getting the k1 have just dropped from slim to none?

Re: Visiting my girlfriend in the US with a UK criminal record.

Thanks for your reply.

The US attorney did mention the theft one was the most serious, and when I asked her where I stand with the ESTA, she went and checked.
When she returned, she told both me...

Re: Visiting my girlfriend in the US with a UK criminal record.

My other half has said that she will sponsor me. I contacted my old solicitors today and asked to confirm what my offences were.

I know it probably sounded daft, but thanks for clearing that up.

Also, her family and herself have already said that they'd sponsor me.
They know people who would give me work, maybe a written...

It was expensive though, but we both wanted to...

Re: Visiting my girlfriend in the US with a UK criminal record.

Thankyou.
I'm just hoping that now, once the Acro certificate arrives, that they can grant me my k1 visa.
I've tried to do everything right, so fingers crossed 🤞

Re: Visiting my girlfriend in the US with a UK criminal record.

Apply for the ESTA or to contact the embassy first?
Also is it better that I apply for the Acro police certificate now too as I'll likely be declined for the ESTA anyway

Re: Visiting my girlfriend in the US with a UK criminal record.

After reading more into this and going over previous comments in this thread.

In your opinion, does it seem likely that I'll get a visa via the petty offence exemption?

The first one for common assault, I was told it was self defence. But they still convicted me of common assault.

Infact it was another forum, but the person who private messaged me said that they found the link from Visa Journey 😂

Re: Visiting my girlfriend in the US with a UK criminal record.

Understandable. So they want to know about all family, even if you don't really know them that well and any other blood relations that I'm aware of? I'm going to struggle with that, as I have distant...
