I am planning to apply for the citizenship. I was arrested in 2003 and pled guilty to a misdemeanour in a deferal court. The crime that I pled with is not deportable as it was agreed with the presecutor to protect my legal status.
Now that it is over the 5 years, I am planning to apply for my citizenship. my questions:
- I went to get my fringer print thrpugh the FBI and there is no record of any arrest or crime. It came clean. I was told that this is very unsual. how this is possible? should I not say anything in the citizenhsip application?
at the same time if I do, I am running a risk of may be denial of the application Or/and correction of my record that is now clean. Any advice?
- My green card is expiring in july 2011. If I am planning to travel sometimes in Feb for 5 months, is this a problem? shall I apply to renew before leaving and get a stamp? or better to submit the renewal just before the expiration in july when I cam back which will be 2 weeks from expiration.
- Is there any way I can apply now to renew so I can a piece of mind.
- is it an issue to apply now for the citizenship while the green will be expiring. Will the application of the citizenship outcome can affect at all the green card.
thanks a lot.
