Please let us know how it works out for the certification. I have a friend trying to do the same thing right now.

After holding my status for 3 years (in March) I applied for AOS. I was able to include my parents and my twin brother as derivatives. I was a victim of felonious assault in October of 2011.

For the petition itself the police department also had to submit form I-918B stating that I was willing to assist in the investigation. I had to provide written statements from family/friends and myself discussing good moral character.

Per USCIS website, the eligible crimes are listed below: http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/f...i-918instr.pdf

I've read multiple cases where the crime wasn't reported until years later.

I didn't go to a doctor either, but wrote an affidavit describing the physical and mental abuse I suffered due to the crime. My mom also wrote a letter for my case.

Also, what state are you in?
