    Depends on the offense and what the original sentence would have been, had you not been granted DA.

    What did you do?

    You pleaded guilty to what? The USCIS can treat a guilty plea as a conviction, even if you get a deferral.

    I pleaded guilty.
    so, if I apply for citizenship will not be aproved?
    Citizenship for me is not necessary, if I won't be aproved I will not apply.

    What DA means?

    I do nothing but goto visit the peobation officer once every month for 6 month.

    This state have this programe for the first time shoplefter to clear thire record.

    I was missleaded by the county lawyer, she told me I can just plea guity and get in this programe to get my record cleared. There will be a lot of work and spend more money if I want to goto a trial. So ,I did. Then I knew that I was missleaded because if I goto a trial I should be able to clear myself.
