Missing evidence letter...

Got a letter from the INS requesting missing evidence. I got the interview letter last month - this is a seperate letter.

It asks for proof of my wife's citizenship, tax transcripts, proof of relationship etc. Fair enough. Got all that stuff squared away already.

The thing that concerns me is the bit that says;

"You have indicated that you have been arrested."

:eek: :eek: :eek: I did no such thing!!!

"For those arrests please bring originals or certified copies ofs of all arrest records and court dispositions...."

I checked yes on "Have you ever been arrested, detained or cited..." because I have two speeding tickets from 5 years ago and and old no-insurance ticket from 15 years ago.

Is this a standard letter/verbage?


I have certified copies of the court record for the two speeding tickets, but when I requested a copy of the no-insurance ticket I got a letter back from the court in England saying that the record no longer exists. I also got a fresh copy of my conviction history from the UK police, and it just says; "No convictions" I figured that would be all I need...

Yup, it is the standard bla bla bla. As you marked "Yes" under arrests, detention etc. all you will need to bring proof that you paid the offense etc.

I have one citation for a minor traffic infraction (failure to obey highway sign) from June 2005 which I did not list on the N-400.

To be on the safe side, I have a court copy of the prepaid fine, along with a court copy of the infraction. Here in VA (Fairfax County) you can get it free of charge from the court that had jurisdiction over the infraction.

So long story short: bring official proof (not just a website printout!) that you paid the fine and you are good to go.

Just my two cents... .

Cheers,

I have got a similar (separate) letter. I too said YES to that arrest/citation question for my speeding ticket 8 years ago. In the interview the officer did not ask anything about it. It was like as if I never sais YES to that question. He did go thru the app from start to finish and just brushed aside the citation part. But from our standpoint, we need to go prepared with the necessary documentation showing that the case was disposed properly. Just take the prrof of paying the fine. You just cover all the bases and you should be OK.
