ra6 I think you were right. I should have marked Yes to arrest Q. Last week I got FBI results back and it shows arrest record. They have one line that says "PROS REL - DET INSUF EVID" I guess it means insufficient evidence. Not sure what PROS REL means. I have already sent papers for visa...

Did Gogol ever reply? What happened to him after FP. I just hate it when people just seek for information and do not get back to this forum and share their experiences. Do they not owe it to the forum?

I was arrested, but not convicted for domestic violence. Charges were dropped. No case filed. Will my visa get denied? Please help.

Do they really change from Domestic violence to simple asault like this? I was arrested on Domestive Violence Chrages and no case was filed. I have a letter that says detention only not an arrest. Shall I write no to arrest question on form DS-156? Can someone can really share their 2 cents?
