UKnown4 Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 Hello all, shortly I will apply for an L1 visa, being sponsored by my company (a major multinational company) who is submitting a petition on my behalf. The visa needs to go through fairly quickly as I am supporting the US business for an urgent short term need. I have a previous conviction in Florida for “resisting an officer without violence” and I am worried that this will lead to administrative processing when apply in January. Does anyone have any experience of the likelihood of this happening!? Since the incident over 5 years ago, I have travelled to the US on an ESTA over 25 times. Quote Link to comment

pontevecchio Posted December 4, 2019 Report Share Posted December 4, 2019 I doubt it. Only one way to find out and that is to apply. Presumably, your employer does not know about the problem? Quote Link to comment

Experiencepeace Posted December 25, 2019 Report Share Posted December 25, 2019 You will have to mention this conviction on DS 160 and subsequently, you may have to answer about it during visa interview. Chances of you getting visa are pretty high given that it falls under one time petty offence exception. However, Your visa case will most likely go through administrative processing and can expect delay up to 2 to 12 weeks Quote Link to comment
