I've chose to make an application for citizenship and at this time I am sort of stuck on Component ten, section D: Excellent Moral Character.
As of this moment I'm 19-year old university student at UCLA.
I was silly enough to-go shoplift a division-store with my buddies, when I was 17. Long story short, we all got caught by the shop safety and soon after some paperwork, law enforcement came by and basically told the judge to be met by us at some designated time and rapidly left.
The judge instructed us to have a 2 element course about getting fully a wonderful ethical resident and which was the finish of it.
By 07/05/2010, I been a permanent resident people for 6 years and its been two years simply because the event.
Will this cease me from getting my citizenship?
Was I caught? (I wasn't location in handcuffs while the authorities merely walked in and walked out so Iam not certain)
Was I guilty?
And lastly what document regarding this do I've to provide along side d-400?
I think I've to obtain court documents that states that the class has been completed by me but apart from that Iam to not sure.
Additionally, I been out-of problems considering that that event and I presently reside in Southern California.

Will this quit me from receiving my citizenship?



Improbable. Broadly speaking, just a single tiny robbery conviction is not sufficient to have you higher than a raised eyebrow and the admonition to not do this once again.




Was I arrested? (I wasn't place in handcuffs whilst the authorities merely walked in and walked out so Iam not certain)



Officially, yes. Handcuffs are not required, neither is prison.




Was I convicted?



Unidentified. When you finished your courses, what had been you told could take place to your report? You will need to have to have all your paperwork with regards to your case in the courts. Did you've a lawyer?

Shortly I will require undoubtedly to head-down to the judge to receive the qualified closing declaration.

Hi JonasB,
I see why you are concerned. I'm an Immigration senior attorney and lawyer for a law workplace in Jacksonville, Fl named Lena Korial-Yonan, P.A. I see several cases like yours. I am satisfied that you're taking your situations critically in the location of just processing with no taking the right measures. You could make contact with me by way of my web site at http://www.needimmigrationhelp.com and I will be pleased to support you. My initial concern is for you to verify that you spent practically no time in jail, proper? Also please confirm that you were definitely underneath the age of 18, because that may well make you a tiny during the time and USCIS has distinctive guidelines for juvenile beliefs, rules that are advantageous to your immigration predicament. Also I realized that you're students at UCLA. Which indicates you genuinely are a citizen of California then? If you can e-mail me precisely the region exactly where you will make an application for naturalization (your town title of one's home lasting address), I will find out where you can have the COURTROOM-CERTIFIED ultimate character and a certified copy of th authorities statement. There is 1 small robbery exclusion, so you are going to wish to examine the total amount claimed to be taken, when you get the police report. I will see if the quantity drops under "small" and you may well be OK.

Expensive JonasB,
I'd previously answered but not certain if my solution was published, as I don't view it everywhere. I needed to let you realize that you require the judge certified final view and also a certified copy of law enforcement statement. You'll need to determine just how much the theft money volume was for and whether in California (where I suppose you were billed) that drops under a small crime. For instance, when the price of the products is under $300 or even more, etc.
I believe that you'll be Okay since you were a juvenile and USCIS has unique guidelines for juvenile crimes. Nevertheless, with that said, each USCIS has their very own methods for managing each situation. You should have the ability to search for an immigration attorney in your town that'll just cost a little payment to examine your situation to determine whether you should use for n 400 or not. The immigration lawyer may in the minimum notice your criminal history records and evaluate them for you personally throughout the discussion.
Make sure to bring the two files mentioned previously to your consultation and also bring your greencard, passport, etc. I RECOMMEND THAT YOU'VE A SKILLED IMMIGRATION ATTORNEY IN YOUR TOWN REVIEW THE DOCUMENTS, as it'll not charge anywhere near what you believe (it's inexpensive to get a consultation) and he or she may guide you regarding whether USCIS will have a problem with the charge or not.

Improbable. Broadly speaking, just one petty robbery conviction is not enough to have you greater than a raised brow and the admonition to not do this again.



In my opinion the judge stated it had been a-class c misdemeanor until this is the same task.

While you finished your courses, what were you told would happen to your record? You will need to obtain all your paperwork regarding your situation in the surfaces. Did you've a lawyer?



I was not told something about my documents.
I did not have a lawyer.
I do not believe I desired one really because nothing was up for conversation.
You see, all my buddies and additional children were seated round the judges desk and were informed we need certainly to consider these courses and then mentioned about boys being boys and we were ignored. Everything looked somewhat too informal when compared with what I thought.
How do you start acquiring the documents?
And, thanks so much for assisting.
Personally I think a little better.
