Thank you for your reply, this helps a lot!

Ive decided to move the interview back a week as i should have the disclosure from the subject access request at this point with the details of the incident and id rather not get a request for more documents/information when the process is long enough as it is.

Hopefully theyll understand my explanation on the day of interview about answering No for convictions with the youth caution as question doesnt refer to this on the form.

Thanks for the tip! Will be sure to keep all the documents/copys

Oops! Well hopefully it will just be okay to explain at the interview that this is not classed as a conviction in the UK and a misunderstanding it would be too the US

Thats great, thank you!

Its from 2007 so it wasnt called that then but i believe online it is now referred to as a 'Youth Caution' yep!

If i have the SAR at the interview, do they tend to accept these there and then without needing to put on hold to contact ACRO?

Hey,

Have read numerous posts on here but haven't quite found the answer im looking for.

Received my Police Cert back with a 'No Live Trace'.. when i was 13 years old (12 years ago) i left a stupid (and obviously not serious) comment on a social media site saying 'lets kill' a teacher resulting in a juvenile reprimand. For this i was not arrested nor did i receive a conviction or go  to court or anything like that. The school simply told me to go to the police station on a saturday with my parents to sign a piece of paper saying i accept the reprimand (formal warning). I had completely forgot about the whole thing until i received the ACRO certificate and my parents reminded me!

I have travelled on ESTA for the past 2 years and i believe this has to be fine to do so as i have never bee arrested or convicted (which apparently means by a court of law only)..

I have also entered on the DS160 form that i have never been arrested or convicted because again I havent..

Embassy interview is on the 21st Aug in LDN. Ordered my subject access request from ACRO on the 20th July, not expecting to receive it in time for the interview with the postage times.

My questions are these 

1. If i do not receive the SAR in time and take only the police certificate stating No Live Trace and a explanation of the details etc - is this going to delay my approval? (e.g not approved on the day)? ACRO have said that the embassy can contact them and they will confirm via telephone the details but surely this is not done during the interview?

2. Is the purpose of the SAR for the embassy not to have to contact ACRO via telephone? 

3. Does what ive entered on the DS160 sound correct?

Any advice would be great!

Thanks
