i was recently caught for shoplifting in texas. im here on a dependent visa.i really dont know wat made me do shoplifting.this is my first time and i got caught. i stole earing and clothes worth 150$ and i was arrested and taken to jail . but was out on bail by nght. i feel really very ashamed of myself for wat i have done and i regreting about it every single second . can eat or sleep well. all my peace of mind got ruined by that silly maddness act of mine. im still waitng to apear in the court and waiting for the letter which will tell my date of appearing in the court. im so sacred and i dont know wat to tel the judge. i wannted to plead to him how regretful i feel . but im not sure whether he will just warn me and let me go .
can anyone please tell me whether this wil be a problem if i apply for extension of dependent visa and whether it might lead to rejection:-((. will this shoplifting case appear in my record and will it be a hindrance for me , entering the USA the next time. is it big offense tat will lead to rejection or will it all depend on the verdict given by the judge.
my husband has filed for the green card. will this shoplifting case of mine be a hndrance factor for our green card apoval as well.... please help
i wil be so grateful if anyone could help me get an answer for this problem.

Since sholifting is a crime of moral turpitude I would sugest you consult with an Attorney. This Attorney should be familar with both criminal law and imigration law

Depending upon the offense, a shoplifting conviction may fall under the "petty offense exception" for crimes of moral turpitude so as not to prevent immigration. But you should consult a criminal defense lawyer who is familiar with immigration law issues, and try to structure an outcome least likely to affect future immigration decisions.
