    Default Applying for Citizenship with a Shoplifting Conviction

    I am looking to apply for N400 US Citizenship application, have been living in The US for more then6yrs… Long story short, few months back I was attrested for shoplifting ($22 Item ) in NJ from Departmental store, This was stupid mistake on my end, ( Also I made few returns to this store, in last 4-5 months ( about $2500 worth ) @ My arrest I was only given one summon from local police dept, few days later court sent me 8 or 9 more summons in the mail, I heard a Attorney went to court and dept store settled with us, and I was charged with one misdemeanor & disorderly person’s offense. Rest were dismissed in court. I paid fine & I am paying restitution amount to the store, I am doing my community service which is almost done and I am on probation till next July.. I have No previous criminal history nothing on my record. What should I do ??? should I apply now or wait till I am out of the probation, In my situation since I have ONE misdemeanor and ONE disorderly person’s offence in state of NJ.. You think immigration will deny my n400 Application ? please advice thank you

    Given your history, you need to involve an attorney for any immigration processing.
