Remember I'm a USC and something don't seem right here. I thinking a White Lie. All these Offenses are aquired with an Arrest. The Petitioner is most likely put on Cousiling and a Parole Officer. The Parole has decression of that Porale Officer along with completed Counseling... I'm going to assume he's still on Parole. If USCIS detects a Drug addiction and for the protection of the Beneficiary they will decline the Petition based upon those grounds. This means: The Petitioner will need to show treatment, letters, etc. Are you prepared for that and is he willing to abide.

Never needed to apologize for asking a question. I wish you the best. It is important if asked at the inteview and will be asked that you know the details if the so-called minor offences of US Law.

Is he still using the pot or alcohol? I'd be more worried about that, at the moment, and his ability to assist you to finish up with the documentation requirements for a K-1 visa.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

I just replied to your sponsor question. Now I see this, you have some serious issues to consider before moving ahead with this.

If your thinking " he will change when I get there", THINK again. Many on this site will agree with me. Another person CANNOT change another person. That is like saying a " baby" will FIX our marriage. IT NEVER DOES!!!!

Now I understand why he has such a low salary. It is near impossible for him to gain employment. He will ALWAYS have a rough time gaining employment for the rest of his life with this legal history. I would not be surprised if he is unable to HOLD a job for any amount of time.

When applying for employment in the U.S., you are inquired about past legal issues.

If legal issues are present, most applications end up in the trash.

Seriously, you need to slow this down and review your options here. 4 times, that indicates a problem that is not going away and has not been delt with. Remember, this is the 4 times he has been CAUGHT. What about the other times. If he is getting caught, that is a serious consumption issue. Not to mention, he is on data basis in police agencies all around where he lives.

In addition, you mentioned above that one of the offenses was while he was driving. If that resulted in a DUI ( driving under the influece ), that is a min. $ 10,000.00 USD to address that issue alone.

You seem young, I am telling you ( as well as others on this site will tell you ), you SHOULD REALLY reconsider this petition.

There are serious RED FLAGS in your relationship not from an immigration point of view, but from a relationship point of view.

If you decide not to follow through with the petition, proceed with caution. Remember, you will NEED him to cancel the petition on his side.

Tell him your physically ill or your mother is ill and you cannot leave at this time and you have to take care of her.

Good luck to you.

Or maybe, how about NOT LYING and just have an honest, adult conversation with him!

Yes, I agree.

A later post from the OP indicates the lack of the Petitioner to provide Documents needed for her Interview next week. Is he trying to make her look foolish! Why would this man do this to this young lady.

Because he's still setting there smoking Pot.

Barron, you are incorrect saying No to this young lady that it will not affect them. (See again her later post)

I would Urge this Pinay to move-on.
