Can a misdemeanor including buying alcohol for minors stop you from becoming a citizen?

Answer 1

No, misdemeanors do not disqualify on for US Citizenship or I wouldn't be one. ...Now a felony would prevent you from being granted citizenshp - the only exception are 'felony conviction from countries that the US finds the judical system questionable, ie: if there is no separation of executive and judical branches, like Iran. In frienly allieed countries the 'nature of the crime' would come into question, ie: no violence, drugs, arms, trafficking etc. If you were in default of a law suit, which in some contries can become flonies, then that is what they consider 'understandable circumstance'. Also, if its a law that wouldn't hold up in a US court then the odds are you will not be rejected because of it. So, to answer the question... if you misdeameanor was for possession of amphetamines with intent to sell -or- possession of a firearm that was not licensed to you, well those kind of misdemeanors cold keep you on the other side of the gates. ...at which point you simply fly to Tijuana Mexico on a weekend and walk back on a Fri or Sat night with all of the tourists and partiers who make the 15 minute trip down from San Diego... and they NEVER chek for IDs on that walk across. ...driving, you'd need to be with a US licensed driver with you as the passenger and NO luggage.

Answer 2

A misdemeanor conviction in a US court may or may not automatically prevent you from becoming a citizen. The USCIS looks at each case and considers such factors as whether anyone was injured, whether or not you cooperated with the police and the courts, and whether you were drinking or carrying an illegal weapon in making its judgment as to your character.
