Does the police certificate say "no trace" or "no live trace"?

Thanks for getting back to me.

The title of the file says "no trace". The letter says neither but it does say that "based on the info provided there is no data held about you on the PNC".

This is the free version of the check.

What do you think?

Hi all

I have a question about criminal convictions for the beneficiary of a K1 visa. My Fiance and I filed the I-129F in April and got our NOA1 on the 1st of May 2019. The beneficiary has convictions related to driving and owning a car. These are: paying a vehicle licence fee late, a speeding offence and driving without insurance. The first two only happened because he didn't receive the initial fines/tickets as he had changed address and didn't update this with the DVLA (DMV in the U.S.). As a result, instead of just a ticket the issues ended up in court. My fiance has applied for an ACRO police check already and it came back clean. However he will have to declare these convictions when he files the DS-160.

What we are concerned about is whether this is something that could be grounds for denial of the visa. As far as we know none of these count as CIMT and in the USA they are probably considered more minor than in the UK (where my beneficiary is based).

Any knowledge, advice or similar experiences would be much appreciated!
