Who got into the US with 2 or more convictions
I hope you don't mind but I am very interested in this subject as I am about to have an interview with the US embassy in London and would like to know about anyone who has been in a similar situation. I have been posting on US Visas and US immigration (if you so need to see my full details) but I thought I would ask here to find anyone who got through to the US against the odds.
If you or someone you know got through immigration even though they had conviction/s, what were the crime/s? Did you get through at the discretion of the interview officer? Did you have to file I-601 waiver of admisability? How long did it take for a result? Anything else that may be of interest on this subject? If anyone does decide to get judgemental, please don't be too hard on me. I have paid the price, grown up and am truely not the person today, that I was when I made those mistakes... as they say live and learn. Much appreciated. |

And what was it you did? You don't have to answer, it's your own business entirely, but it might help people to answer. I have heard of people successfully getting the 601 waivers but I don't know the details - just posts I remember from the marriage-based forum. I think it often depends on what the crime was, how long ago etc. I do know of someone who is applying and has a background of prostitution. Very long time ago - she was very young and mixed up - and she now works as a counsellor. Haven't heard from her in a while so I don't know whether her application was successful but I do know drugs and prostitution are biggies, drunk-driving much lesser to the US authorities. Maybe it would be worth doing a search on the us marriage-based forum using the term 'waiver'. Regards -=- Scarlett |
If you have 5 or more years imprisonment, you are virtually 100 % to be turned down is what I have been told. Not that I have done 1 minute in jail may I add.
