10mistakes

New Member
I messed up in life I was accused with 10 counts of misdemenor theft. I have court in one month. Both of my parents and me have Employment verification card with a Catergory C09

My lawyer said he will try to reduce it to one or two counts of misdemeanor theft.


I am 17 years old and was wondering, am i still gonna get a green card/ am i getting deported?
I am sorry for what I have done. I have paid back the company with hard work.

Did I ruin my life and my parents with this mistake?
 
Try for one count of misdemeanor theft. You might still be ok then. Seems to me like one theft and 10 items. Should be possible to swing it. Do work closely though an immigration attorney also. It is important that the criminal defense attorney does not do any deals with the DA that endangers immigration.
 
Misdemenor C and GC in process - This is little lengthy Please bear with me

Hi,
I did a very big mistake and convicted for misdemenor C (shoplift)for less than $50. I got 3 month unsupervised probationa and paid 300 fine. I am a dependent , my husband is primary for our GC. This incident happened recently. So was ot mentioned in 485 which was filed 2 years back. My case will be dismissed after I complete the probation.

My question is will I get an Interview? Will my act affect my husband. i am very scared and worried.

I was reading in some forums and found a case posted by some one else which I am pasting as I am in the same situation too(haven't received any letter but has misdemenor shoplift record)



:( It happened with my wife (on dependent VISA) before I applied for GC around 8 years back. She stole few small things from one store and walked out to other store next to the first one. There she again picked the few things and tried to walk out. She was caught and cop was called. She was arrested, given a ticket and then got a court notice to appear for finger printing. She appeared in the court, accepted her fault. Court asked her to perform community service for 60 hours and pay some penalty. After finishing her community service, she appeared again in front of court and court closed the case after acknowledging that she has completed the community service.

I applied for GC after one & half year of that incident. I received my GC last year but as we have mentioned about her arrest incident in her I-485 application, her case was transferred to NBC and she has been called for an interview with the case details from the court. She appeared for the interview and provided all the required documents. She has been asked to wait for next 90 days to hear back from them. She received a letter last week stating that
"You are inadmissible, pursuant to section 212(a)(2). However, you are eligible to file for an I-601 waiver of this inadmissibility ground. You must prove that should you have to leave the United States, it will create EXTREME hardship to your qualifying relative (your U.S. citizen husband). You must provide documentary evidence to support your claim of extreme hardship, and proof that you paid all appropriate fees...."

They have given 80 days to respond.

Please suggest what should we do now and what are her chances to get her GC. (I am pasting below):(


My second is , while I was researching internet I saaw that seperation from family and financial obligations are not considered as extreme hardship:( which scares me to death as we don't have any kids and there are no other hardships. I really do not want to effect my husbands GC dreams because of the stupid thing I did.
Any one please advice. Did anyone get GC with shoplift conviction? Will it effect my husband's GC (he is primary)
 
You're accused, that is so funny! Don't you mean that you're a thief and you got caught? Don't worry, you only ruined your life. Your parents didn't steal anything. I'm not going to tell you if you have anything to worry about, I prefer that you think about what you did everyday until you get a answer back from CIS.
