Should a charge of vandalism affect a naturalization application? It was 8 years ago, the applicant was a minor, the only punishment was a fine and community service, and it was not a problem at visa or waiver interviews in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico - even being approved without being backlogged. We have the official court disposition.
I am just not sure if vandalism is a CIMT or if it can hurt the establishment of Good Moral Character, depending on the officer. I don't know if it sends the red flag of gang involvement but it was really just careless juvenile behavior of writing on the bathroom wall at school..
Thanks!
