i actually have something similar.....my partner was charged with domestic violence by his ex wife, who from my understanding kept changing the story of what happened, but he went to jail for 90 days anyway. I am just wondering if he needs to include his full record or just the domestic violence record? 

 

i will be hopefully *fingers crossed* be sending the whole package by March. I have gotten really into a swing of things and getting things organised. I am actually feeling really positive and excited about my future.

Coz being arrested is different from an actual conviction. If he was convicted, it has to be declared on your petition coz it falls under IMBRA. but if he was just arrested, then after court and his time being in jail, his case was dismissed by the court, then he is not convicted which means, it doesnt need to be declared on the petition although you have to still have the full knowledge about it just in case they ask you about it. 

With my case, my husband  was just arrested but not convicted. It was just an allegation and false accusation. The ex wife was practicing her best actress piece for OSCARS when she called the police just so she can send my husband to jail. But after the arrest and investigation, they found out her wounds were self inflicted. 

My husband was then released from jail. 

 

We didnt declare it on our petition and they never asked anything about it.

Thats why make sure if he was convicted or just arrested.

this is what im trying to figure out before we send our application in, My Ex was pretty much the same, she obtained a restraining order against me , but i was told by the court that there is no conviction against me. Now do i list it or dont? I dont want to hide anything and my Fiance know all about everything. And i did not go to jail.

Read the form instructions carefully and interpret them literally.

What happened with this case? Did it get approved at the embassy?

The OP's timeline indicates that it was, and that their immigration process then proceeded.
