Just wait for the police certificate and see if it lists his arrest date and charge. Then you won't need anything else. It comes very quickly and you aren't going to need it for months.  It doesn't go in the I-129F petition application packet. He will need it when the file gets to London. The medical people just want to look at it to see if he's had any drug related incidents. Then he takes it in hand to his interview.

 

ACRO has a place to order the SAR,  but people interviewing in London this year say the police certificate now has the same info as the SAR. I don't think he will need it.

Awesome, thank you for giving me so much peace of mind!

A police certificate (ordered from ACRO) is required for his medical in the U.K. and his interview. It will show his record. If it simply says "No Live Trace" without any details of his juvenile arrest (because it was stepped down) then he should also order a Subject Access Report. The "No Live Trace" was the standard police certificate for a long time for anybody with hidden convictions. Anybody with zero convictions got "No Trace". Recently ACRO has started asking if it is for immigration. If so, they know that even hidden arrests need to be revealed and they include that information now if it is for immigration. 

Thank you so much! That was very helpful!! 

Okay he ordered his ACRO but where do we go to get his Subject Access Report? 

I know I’m a little late to this thread, but if anyone could please just ease my mind. I am about to apply for the K1 visa, my fiancé is from the UK. He has a prior arrest as a juvenile. He was 16, now he is 31. I understand that this could be an issue? If he gets asked if he was ever arrested, even though he was a minor, he should still say yes, right? We are trying to do this 100% by the book and not lie at all. And I was told he should get a police record anyway.
