possible 212(a)(2)(A)(i)(I) inadmissibility – looking for similar experiences
Дата публикации: 14-08-2026 01:52:48
Hi everyone,
I am looking for people who have had a similar experience with *INA § 212(a)(2)(A)(i)(I) / Crime Involving Moral Turpitude (CIMT)*, especially involving old convictions from Germany.
I am a German citizen and I am concerned that I may be found inadmissible because of two criminal proceedings from about *11 years ago*.
Here are the details:
* In the *first case*, I was convicted of what is described in the German judgment as *“simple fraud” (einfacher Betrug)* and received a *€300 fine*.
* I am currently pursuing a *reopening of this first case* because there were insufficient/missing pieces of evidence. If the case is reopened, I hope the original conviction may eventually be overturned.
* The *second case* involved *22 counts of fraud*, with a total financial loss of approximately *€700*. I received a sentence of *8 months imprisonment, suspended on probation*.
* All of this happened approximately *11 years ago*.
* I have had *no further criminal convictions or problems since then*.
* Since then, I have completely turned my life around and have *become a lawyer myself*.
My main questions are:
1. Would the first offense necessarily be considered a *CIMT* under U.S. immigration law?
2. If the first conviction is successfully overturned through the reopening procedure, would that potentially leave only the second case relevant for the 212(a) analysis?
3. How would *22 fraud counts with a total loss of only about €700 and an 8-month suspended sentence* typically be treated for U.S. immigration purposes?
4. Has anyone here had a similar case involving *multiple old fraud convictions from Germany or another European country*?
5. If you were found inadmissible under *212(a)(2)(A)(i)(I)*, what happened afterwards? Did you obtain a *212(d)(3) waiver* for a nonimmigrant visa or a *212(h) waiver* for an immigrant visa?
I would especially appreciate hearing from people who had an actual outcome, such as *waiver approved, visa issued, or waiver denied*.
I understand that every case is different and that this is not a request for legal advice. I am mainly looking for real-world experiences with similar facts.
Thank you!
