What are the consequences for the application of a green
card if the case involves a nul prosecute and expungement
of records (citation)for an unattended child (pass off to
neighbor baby sitter botched). The wife ( K-3 status -
beneficiary of the application) went to the interview with
ins officials in Baltimore. The case was explained (in the
application for the green card). The wife admitted to the
incident, forwarded all relative documents including
expungement records. Child protective services conducted
due diligence and found "no evidence of child neglect."
During the interview with the INS they asked the wife to
volunteer to make a sworn statement. In the statement the
wife said she was not arrested and never commited any
other crime and so forth. Though she mistated that she
went to the police station when in fact she went to child
protective services (CPS) to pick up the child. The
citation was issued at CPS.
If the case was to be prosecuted and if found guilty a
possible maximum penalty of thirty days existed.
The INS representative said "she thought there would be no
problem."

Is everything ok ?
If there is a problem what procedures can be pursued to
grant a green card.
