Possible dating violence as minor?

[Bobjoebob 0]

When I was 15 or 16, this girl I broke up with told police I bruised her. It wasn’t true, but anyways I did get a record. 
 

i took community service for a few days, and was told if I stay out of trouble the record would be removed. I don’t remember what the charge is. And i could not find any record, nobody has it. It doesn’t exist. It’s been wiped clean.
 

is this charge going to affect my k1 visa application? Can this be considered a violent problem and I can be denied?

 

 Thanks

Are you a petitioner living in US? If the answer to this question is yes, and you went to court, then there is a record with FBI. Failure to include information is a really bad idea. Have you checked with the Clerk of the court in which you were tried for any records? My petitioner's court case was also dismissed (pre-trial) and later expunged, but we were still able to get records of the case from the Clerk. Did you also reach out to the police department that arrested you? If both of those turn up empty, you should still write this in your application. Some people on here get their own FBI records pulled and include those in the application, which is definitely the safest bet.

I had some old substance type charges that needed disclosed for a K-1 petition.  After looking at the situation it became abundantly clear that it would be much better to instead marry and pursue a CR-1 visa.   Best decision I ever made.   Faster too.
