Hi,
I am on H1 and my husband has applied for green card .I was charged for shoplifting for 26$ and this is my first offense.i was not arrested but i was asked to attend the court.But as this was my first offense they said that case would be under continuall dismissal for one year and if i am not involved in sholifting or any crime again that case would be dismissed and would not be in records after one year.my question is does this effect my green card .Will INS will have any reason to deny my permanent residentship based on these.Please help me out.
Thanks,
Coolbuddy.

Coolbuddy,

Law says that if a Green card holder is convicted for shoplifting he/she will never get the U.S. citizenship.

But I'm not sure about your case.

Consult with a good immigration lawyer........don't care about attorney fee.

Good luck
