7+ years ago I had attempted to enter the United States.

 

My car was searched and they found a small leaf that tested positive for marijuana (yes very stupid I know, I did not realize it was in my car...seriously huge lapse in judgement). The border officers had me sign form I-275 Withdrawal of Application for Admission.

 

My question is will this incident from 7+ years ago cause my K1 to be denied?

 

I had done my due diligence in the beginning on this year and went to the same Port of Entry (Peace Bridge) and confirmed if I am still inadmissable to the United States and the border officer I was speaking with asked me a couple of questions and then told me that it has been a long time since I have tried to re-enter and that I was now Admissable. Since then I have gone to New York every other weekend with no issues at all. I am just extremely concerned that this will cause our K1 to be denied. If anybody could offer up any advice it would be greatly appreciated.

No, a withdrawal of admission is not going to be an issue for a K-1. Luckily they didn't do an expedited deportation due to the controlled substance violation, but they were nice enough to let you withdraw admission instead.

 

And as stated above, if you were inadmissible you wouldn't have been admitted.

I got extremely lucky and was super thankful to those CBP officers for not being so harsh on me. It was a huge mistake that I learned a lot from. Thank you for your response I really do appreciate it.
