Currently , the law generally does not provide for expungement relief when convicted of a FEDERAL crime. There are very limited exceptions depending on which circuit court law applies. Also, a Presidential pardon could be sought but having one granted is unlikely. No federal statute authorizes the expungement of convictions for federal crimes (other than convictions related to low level drug possession by people under the age of 21 years). Though federal courts do have the authority to order the
record removed in extraordinary circumstances (e.g.: where a lack of probable
cause is evident or if the person arrested was taken into custody for a statute that is deemed unconstitutional). Generally speaking, you will not be able to have a conviction removed from your record, you can, however, seek a federal pardon (Presidential pardon) but this will not remove the conviction from your record; it merely "forgives" you for committing it. See the below website of information on a bill currently bottlenecked in Congress which would address federal expungement.
