    Default International Travel and Re-Entry After Misdemeanor Conviction

    I have been a legal permanent resident for four years without any criminal record in the U.S. or elsewhere until 2010. In January 2010 I was arrested and charged with felony indecent exposure. During my case, the charges were reduced to misdemeanor lewd conduct. I was convicted, served 13 days in jail, paid no fine and was sentenced to three years of informal probation. I did not appear before an immigration judge, and my probation does not restrict my travel. The only specific requirement of the probation is that I stay out of trouble during the period. I currently am working.

    I would like to travel outside of the United States for pleasure for a maximum of two weeks. My immigration card is valid and I hold a valid passport from my home country. Will I face any re-entry issues upon return to the United States from a two-week stay abroad because of this specific misdemeanor conviction?

    You should discuss the specifics of your situation with an immigration lawyer. You're playing with dynamite, and we don't have anywhere near the information we need to tell you "It's okay" (nor would you be wise to bet your immigration status based upon free advice offered based upon a whopping five sentences of information.)
