Domestic violence and police caution !

[dixon]

Hi every one,
I am an Asian ,main applicant for tier-1.I have got a written police caution in the case of domestic violence saying criminal damage of under £ 1000.00 Pounds .It normally affects for five years.

These are the common points I would like to share,

1. There was no physical violence and just verbal abuse and big threatens.
2.Burnt some clothes and shoes of Spouse,
3. It was happened in May,2011 after first extension.
4.We are living separately from then.My Spouse is living with two children of 10 and 14 years in a refuge.
5. I am covering maintenance cost of my children
6. We haven't got any divorce or lodged divorce application.
6. I am going to apply ILR next year 2013 and the month would be July.
7. She has reported to the Womens Aid that she has been abused by me since 14 years.

This is clearly recorded on record as domestic violence and children are kept separately by an agency.Its already been one year so may be no chance to go to court with that case ? . Would you advise please .
If this is not a court case and a caution stating criminal damage,I am scared with the word criminal damage .
Do you believe that it affects my ILR and citizenship ??
Grateful for your advice,

Dixon
