I have a questions about my I-129F application. It states that I need to list any "convictions" that might be on my record. I was arrested for CDV (criminal domestic violence). My EX-wife falsely accused me of this and of course police seem to always believe the woman if she is convincing enough. Anyway, we went to court and I was found innocent. I have no convictions......but I now have an arrest record. Do I have to list this and provide a police report? I have not yet mailed my I-129F form yet because I was not clear on this issue.
You only need to list 'convictions', the arrest is irrelevant. No need for a police record from the petitioner if there are no 'convictions'.
BTW...Technically you were found 'not guilty'. Courts do not determine 'innocence'.
This is correct. The OP's question indicates a weakness when it comes to reading carefully, interpreting literally and answering accurately. With that in mind, I'd suggest going back over the "petition" (It's not an application.) with a fine tooth comb, being extremely diligent at reading carefully, interpreting literally and answering accurately. If he's not confident he can do this, then I recommend getting the assistance of somebody who can.
