We are preparing to apply for K-1 visa. I have a total of 3 misdemeanor DUI convictions 24 to 30 years old in Oregon and California (CA). According to the CA. Department of Justice (DOJ), based on my livescan fingerprints,there is no record of my CA conviction. I also checked with the arresting police department, their records department and also the courthouse and all indicate in writing that I have no record in CA. I have contacted 3 CA. law firms, that claim to specialize in arrest records, and requested they obtain this 1987 record for my K-1. All 3 firms advise me that if DOJ has no record then it's not possible for anyone to obtain this for me and they doubt that USCIS will find anything - that in 1987 files for misdemeanor DUI were paper files as were fingerprint files and most likely my fingerprints were never sent to DOJ which is why no record is found - they suspect my paper file is in the basement and was never entered into the computer database (all over the phone speculative advise/opinion). In Oregon I can only find record of my 1981 arrest from the State Police records (Oregon's clearing house for all arrest records). I have hired an Oregon lawyer to obtain the required certified copies of my 2 Oregon arrests. I am afraid that if I don't disclose my 3 arrests it will come up in the USCIS check and we will be denied, however if I do disclose and don't provide the required certified records (that I can't obtain) then we will be denied. My lawyer advises me to obtain the records but so far has not told me how to accomplish this. How do I obtain these required records? Should I disclose this at all? Please advise.
