H1B Renewal with Dropbox and shoplifting citation

[miserable9]

Hi All,

 

I have to travel in May and will be getting my H1B renewal. I am eligible for the Dropbox facility which does not require an interview. In 2012 I received a shoplifting citation for misdemeanor and the case was voluntarily dismissed ( there was no arrest, no fingerprinting, no photographs, no fines ). The case has now also been expunged.

My first visa stamping was at Mumbai the same year, and although I was questioned about this incident a little, I had been granted the visa.

 

I am unsure about this new renewal process involving dropbox. Should I opt for interview or dropbox? Does anybody have any experience with this?

Please share your thoughts

Go for interview. Then you get to know the outcome first hand.

Did you get your visa?
