Re: Misrepresentation on I-485

Your application could be denied on the basis that you failed to disclose your arrest. Have you been interviewed? Have you disclosed this at your interview? You have to provide the USCIS with a certificate of disposition.

However, you should talk with an immigration lawyer to see whether your "violation" is really something minor or a conviction for something that could jeopardize your adjustment.

Should you wish to discuss your matters with us, feel free to give us a call.

Best Wishes!
