Sam3789 Posted March 4 Report Share Posted March 4 Hello i had a arrest record back in 2015 and case was dismissed after pre trial diversion program . There was no admission of guilt or anything . I went for stamping in 2019 and I provided the certified copies of court record , arrest citation , immigration lawyer opinion letter. I got my h1 visa approved in 1-2 weeks. now since California law will seal and expunge arrest records and court records. Will this case pop up for my next visa stamping ? I have all docs with me do I still need to produce the docs if asked for drop box appointments or visa interviews if I’m called back to attend interview.? Can anyone help ? Quote Link to comment
pontevecchio Posted March 5 Report Share Posted March 5 You will need the relevant docs in case they need them. Since they have the records from your last visa Interview, subsequent Expungement does not hide the facts. Quote Link to comment
JoeF Posted March 6 Report Share Posted March 6 (edited) Immigration law is federal. State law can never override federal law. These things are never hidden for immigration proceedings. Edited March 6 by JoeF Quote Link to comment
