Hi,

MY wife was arrested by police when she was smoking marijuana when she was under 21 years old (12 years ago) and court assigned her 60 hour public service and less than $100 fine. I am worried is it make any issues during background security check for our marriage green card? My Wife is US citizen and I am international citizen.

What's an "international citizen" anyway? :) She doesn't have to go through background check. They fingerprint only the beneficiary and not the petitioner. So, relax and have a drink!!! Don't do pot though. :)

I got arrested for kicking a cop when I was 17.....hahahahahaha (dont ask) and that was never an issue...but that was on my juvenile record. It shouldn't matter,they really only look at you, I dont think they do background checks on the USC in the case.

--March 2012-- Biometrics and Doctors App (around the same time)

--June 2012-- (BIG PROBLEM) Immigration sent us a 'DENIAL' letter due to not having a sponsor (I thought we didnt need one)

--June 2012-- we hired a lawyer and got a sponsor, got the I-290B Motion to Appeal or Reopen had everything sent off by the end of July 2012.

--October 2012-- OUR APPEAL WAS APPROVED (breath easy, we didn't have to wait too long)

--October 2012-- Work permit sent-- got SSN

--November 26th, 2012-- AOS interview-- Got sent out told to get a translator and new interview date would be sent. :(
