Hello,
I’m currently facing two summary offence charges, and my lawyer is hoping to reach a resolution soon. I would like some guidance on what outcome we should prioritize to maintain a clean record.
My lawyer’s first goal is a withdrawal, but if that’s not possible, should we focus on a peace bond, absolute discharge, or conditional discharge?
I already have my RCIC recommendation and need to submit my file to the federal level, but I’m waiting for my case to be resolved. Since my recommendation expires in 6 months, I’m wondering whether I should wait or if I can proceed with lodging my file now.

Any advice would be appreciated.

What do you mean by "RCIC recommendation"?
 
RCIP SORRY TYPO i got the recommendation from community which means community nominated me to apply for my PR to federal level now

This is why an immigration lawyer should be working with your criminal lawyer. These are rare circumstances and they will be more familiar with settlement times and processing times, etc.
