US Citizenship, misdemeanor case
First of all I would like to thank Rajiv for this website. I am a new user but I've read some answers and felt so easy already. I had a misdemeanor charge back in 2007, shoplifting (less than 500). I did community service 24 hours and was on probation, got early termination of probation in 2008. All records got cleared in the state of Colorado. I am thinking to apply for US citizenship but very nervious about it. Please advise. I have two daughters. My husband could apply first with kids and I could try after them. Please help me. Need your advice.
Thanks for your kind comments about our web site. You can apply, but USCIS can certainly make an issue about the misdemeanor. You may want to retain a local lawyer.
I am very pleased with the work that Rajiv Khanna and his team have done for my Labor Certification. I had an RFE from the State and it was promptly responded to and now my Labor has been certified. Subha and Savita have been very helpful and have given me lot of guidance.
