  • Previous conviction, very anxious, ANY opinions appreciated!

    I've posted here before about this before, but wanted to give an update and get some opinions. I am a U.S. citizen, husband is French, and here on an F-1 visa. He had a prior conviction back in his home country that occurred 7 years ago, for group robbery (stole items from a friend's apartment, and was returned). His final sentence was jail time of four months, but he did not have to serve, just pay fines and remain on good behavior, which he has. He was never in trouble with the law before or after. His police record is free of everything.

    We sent the lawyer of a translated copy of the court disposition a week ago, and she wants to have a phone conference next week to discuss the implications- they haven't submitted the applications yet, although we wish they just would. We are soooo, so anxious as just getting documents for the I-485 was a huge pain and took MONTHS of waiting, plus, he would like the chance to visit his family this summer and obviously needs the documents to do so.

    What are the chances that the I-485, and the documents for employment and travel authorization will or will not work out? ANY opinions will be appreciated!!!

    hey there,

    hopefully everything comes out good for you and your husband.

    i've read that usually the uscis is more understanding and can probably let you get away if the crime has been over 5 years ago and you've kept goo behavior since then.
    also, his felony must have nothing to do with drugs as they're very strict on that side.

    good luck
