M1 Visa after being arrested
Hi,
Im off (hopefully) to the states in June for a month to do my PPL.
Booked flights today, called US embassy to arrange visa and they wanted to know if I had been arrested, charged with any offence etc etc.
I was arrested in 2006 for assault, I was released without charge, and since recieved a payment / out of court settlement for a reasonable ammount of money after pursuing a legal claim for wrongful arrest and unlawful detention.
As I have been arrested I now need to jump through loads of other hoops to get my visa sorted out.
Has anyone had similar experiences?
I only have several weeks to get it all sorted as my flight is booked for the 11th June. Really hoping I can get this sorted in time!!
Cheers
