Can a H1B visa with a criminal record dismsissed case travel to the UK?
I have a criminal record dismissed case, wants to go to London and I'm trying to determine if that is actually a possibility.
The did had dismissed case with deferred prosecution with probation of 9 months for petty theft.The case got dismissed in 2017. Now, I have to travel to UK for 10 days for my abroad study from school.
The visitor visa have these following questions:
At any time have you ever had any of the following, in the UK or in another country?
A criminal conviction A penalty for a driving offence, for example disqualification for speeding or no motor insurance An arrest or charge for which you are currently on, or awaiting trial A caution, warning, reprimand or other penalty A civil court judgment against you, for example for non payment of debt, bankruptcy proceedings or anti-social behaviour A civil penalty issued under UK immigration law
Should I mention in any of this options about my dismissed case? or is it fine to answer no since it was dismissed?
I did mention like this in my application will this be fine?
Thank you

You should report it. First review the original papers and use the exact wording. The details in your explanation need to be correct.
The question is very broad. You did have a "warning, reprimand, or other penalty", even if it has been cancelled for many purposes by the subsequent dismissal. See UK Standard Visitor visa refused (V3.6(b), deception on prior convictions, 10 year ban), can I reapply immediately? for the result of answering "No" in a somewhat similar situation. On the other hand, because the question is so broad, a "Yes" answer will not necessarily stop you from getting a visa.
