I came to this country when I was 8 (in 1990) as a green card holder. In 1999, right when I turned 18, i got arrested for burgulary of a vehicle in state of TX. Then in 2007, I was arreseted for criminal mischief and evading an arrest. Criminal mischief charge was dismissed and the evading arrest charges are pending(probably will be reduced to class C misdemeanor). Then in late 2007, I was arrested for DWI. However, I was aquitted after a trial. So bascially I have two criminal record, the burgulary vehicle(misdmeanor A,its sealed to public) and evading an arrest charge that will be reduced to class C misdemeanor. I read that Burg of a vehicle in TX is not encompassed within the "burglary offense" category of aggravated felonies under the Immigration and Nationality Act
In 2011, I will graduate from dental school and become a dentsit. I will also join the army dental corp Reserve.
My questions are:
1)Will the fact I am a dentist and in the army reserve help me out in anyways of getting a citizenship??
2)Will I just be deported??
3)Do I even have a chance of getting a citizebship? If there is a high chance of getting deported, i need to start making plans to practice in South Korea(where I am from).
4) I have a girlfriend who has been here since she was 13(now 26) but is illegal now due to her visa expiring. Can she get a green card or work permit if she marries me who has a green card? Can she stay in the US?
a) If she can, how long will it take?
5) Will marrying a illegal immigran have a negative effect on my naturalization application in the future??
Thank you so much for taking time to read this. I am so sorry I bombarded you with lot of questions.
