I'm petitioning for my immigrant husbands green card. He has a perfectly clean record, maybe just a few traffic tickets.
I have some misdemeanor charges. A DUI that's almost 5 years old but more recently a public intox, which I've been told is merely a citation, a failure to appear which seems to have been cleared up once I paid an old traffic ticket so I'm not sure how that stands, but what concerns me is an arrest for presenting false identification to a police officer. How will my record affect my husband? While the false identification was a misdemeanor it doesn't exactly look good in this situation. I'm afraid they'll think if I would use a fake ID I'd be willing to participate in a sham marriage. I'm hoping to show them how supportive my husband has been and how he's helped me turn my life around and seek treatment for mental health issues and alcoholism.
