Background investigators are human, and with that you are subject to a vast amount of different personalities and opinions. It actually is very dependant upon the BI'S report and how that investigator goes about rationalizing what occured. For the most part I can tell you that you really shouldn't worry as the most important thing is being completely honest about everything, I say this because lying to the investigator over any one thing is likely to greatly change their perception of you. If you are 100% honest I really see nothing for you to worry about. Explain the circumstances to the investigator.

Good Luck

Dear Anonymous,

dimas is very astute on this one. Your only problem will be, if you are telling the truth,any personal bias of the background investigator. In the big scheme of law enforcement, your actions are not anywhere near as bad as what you will face in real life during your shift(abandoned children, parents in hotels who do not bath, feed, or care for their children, spouse beating, etc., etc.).

18 yo w/ 17 yo, be honest with that one, they won't even care unless they have a screw loose. my bgi just giggled because on my bg sheet i answered positive to having sex w/ a minor and when asked about it i told him the truth and it made me look excessively honest. to the guy from the foreign country, i wouldn't worry about it, since it is apparently the custom in your country and you married her on top of that i wouldn't even mention it but if you feel you must or feel you will feel guilty about it which you shouldn't i would just say it matter of factly and show no guilt in your face.

My assumption would be that you are in the clear because you broke no U.S. Law. But does anyone have any knowledge of how law enforcement agencies regard a candidate who, when 18 years old had, sex with a 17 year old? Legally this would be statutory rape, but it is extremely common.
