    Renewing a Green Card With Drunk Driving Convictions
    My green card expires in June 2014 I have already applied for renewal in February but I've been in the US for 10 years and I'm worried that because of criminal record it will be denied and I will be deported

    I was arrested for DUI in 2007 (BAC 0.15) no jail time and DUI 2010 (BAC 0.13) judge appointed I do 3 days in jail (one weekend) both misdemeanors and In both occasions had to do the DUI program and pay the fines, also I was charged with a misdemeanor for giving false information on insurance claim in 2011 were I paid restitution of $7800 to insurance company, also did 80 hrs. volunteer work and 10 days community service. I'm wondering is these crime involve moral turpitude and I am eligible for deportation. Thank You.

    You should consult an immigration lawyer. I would say you will be denied and deported.

    The DUI is not considered by immigration to be either a crime involving moral turpitude nor a deportable violent crime.

    However, the insurance fraud very much is a crime involving moral turpitude.

    That being said, as Dissy says, you need to talk to an immigration attorney.
