Hello all ,

Can someone help please?

I tried my websites, attornys, nobody helped me out.

Here is my story:

I am Canadian Citizen, working in NJ from last five years and am on TN visa now, married to American Citizen. My wife is ready to sponser me for green card but I have some background from canada which is as follows:

1995- Aquitted from Sexual Assult( Ex-Wife falsely accused in the revenge) - found not Guilty

1995, january- while waiting for trail for sexual assult, was charged with Public Mischief( count 1) and breach of peace( count 2)( beacuse I was waiting trail for Sexual Assult case). Matter went to Court, Court gave me a conditional discharge with 1 year probation. I completed the probation.
Prosecutor withdrew breach of breach of peace charge ( count 2), Now has police clearane says I have no Criminal Record.

I have been on HI in the past and now on TN.

Question: Am I going to have any problems in getting Green Card because of conditional discharge with probation case?

Please please respond.

Thanks: Sidhu from NJ
 
What one would need to know is the exact definition of the crime and the possible punishment for it, to determine if it was a "crime of moral turpitude" and what the maximum punishment could have been.
