You should be fine if non-convicted in the case. You must disclose everything truthfully. Expect considerable delay in the processing, up to 3 months.

You don't need to submit any police report or any case related paper work.

If u were arrested but not convicted, they wil stil hav ur recored of arrest. But as u werent convicted so it can be expected tht this arrest wont effect ur app much. Just b truthful in ur answer. If u lie then ur doomed.

If you answer 'No'. Expect straight refusal right away. Under that question, there is enough space to write in point forms as what happened. There is NO way to hide it.

Thankyou so much for your post and m going to answer yes but i was wondering should i hire a lawyer or should i submit any certified copy of court which stated that charges are withdrawn?Should i explain everything?

Third and the last time:


As long as its not a conviction or pending charges, you are safe. Hiring a lawyer make no sense. You don't need any certified letter or documents. They have access to everything. You must write 'yes'. Expect 3 months of delay.
