@Romero509 - Im sorry to hear that you did not get approved. Did you file the paperwork by yourself? or with a lawyer? Did you get any documentation from Immigration about the possibility of getting deported? Thank you for taking the time to respond. Truly appreciate it!

@Tori - It is a DUI, I got other charges dropped for driving without a license, but the court left the DUI. Yes, I did all the classes, paid all the fines, etc. It has been 8 years. Was yours a DUI as well? If so, how did you applied? by yourself or with a lawyer? and did you listed your previous conviction (DUI)? Thank you for taking the time to respond.

@ holdingon2promise - Thank you, I do want to apply, trust me! But, I am just too concern about the possibility of getting deported. Are you in the process? Did you completed your application stating that you had a prior conviction (DUI) ? Or stated that you did not?

Hello Everyone, About 8 years ago I got a DUI. Since than, I have been very cautious and not received any other type of driving tickets and/or gotten in any other sort of trouble. I have been told by lawyers not to apply due to the DUI. I have recently received my MBA and I would like to start working. I recently started my family, I feel desperate not to be able to apply for this wonderful opportunity. My greatest fear/concern is to get deported, or detained (since I have a small child). I have the following questions: (any information would be greatly appreciate it): 1- When the application is filed, do I mark/select that I have had a prior conviction (DUI)? 2- Are there any lawyers that you guys (that got approve) would recommend? 3- I'm kind of unclear about the process (since I have never applied) Once the application is submitted (and if I check that I have a prior conviction) does the lawyer has to submit a good conduct letter in order to prove that I am a model/good citizen? 4- In average how long does it take to get any sort of response? Thank you in advance!
