    Default I Want to Apply for Citizenship but Was Arrested

    I'm a girl. When I was 19 years old I used to date ( just kiss and going out to places with the family) a 15 years old girl who is my cousin.(this last a year I was 18 and she was 14) When her mother find out my cousin lied saying that I sexually abuse her I went to family court (protection order) and criminal court (my aunt said everything to the school)In the Family court they did an investigation; physical, psychological, and they didn't find anything against me. In criminal court the case was dropped ( because of lack of evidence and my aunt didn't want to continue the case since my cousin said the true) . I'm in college 21 years old and work. Would I get in trouble applying for the citizenship? like deported?

    Given the seriousness of the allegation, even though the charge was dismissed and thus would not normally be an impediment to naturalization, I suggest consulting an immigration lawyer about your situation.
