Is shoplifting a moral turpitude offense and if convicted in Australia of this offense will the us government decline entry to the us travelling through the visa waiver program?
Yes, it is a crime of moral turpitude (regardless of the stolen good's value). Even in travelling under the VWP, a visitor would still be required to get an ESTA beforehand. One of the questions asked on the ESTA is if you were convicted of a crime of moral turpitude. You must answer honestly. In your case, it is highly probable that an ESTA, and therefore entry under the VWP would be denied.

Is possession of a controlled substance a crime of moral turptitude?
: What is a crime of moral turpitude?: A crime of moral turpitude would include such crimes as fraud, theft, housebreaking, kidnapping, robbery, murder, arson, forgery, rape or sexual assault. Certain other crimes are not crimes of moral turpitude, for instance, impaired driving. Crimes such as simple assault, causing a disturbance or joyriding are not crimes of moral turpitude. Even manslaughter, in most instances, is not a crime of moral turpitude. An individual convicted of such a crime is not excludable as long as he or she has no other convictions or his or her total sentences do not exceed five years. However, where an offence involves some element of reckless conduct, such conduct may constitute a crime of moral turpitude. Close examination of the statutory provision is necessary, but in Canada these may include dangerous driving and criminal negligence causing death. : Single crime exception-crimes of moral turpitude: See s. 212(a)(2)(A)(ii) The single crime of moral turpitude exception applies when the offence is punishable by a year or less and the sentence imposed does not exceed six months. Another single crime exception applies to offences committed when a person is under the age of 18 as long as five years has elapsed from the date the sentence was completed. The single offence exception does not appear to apply to convictions for two or more offences, even when they arise out of the same incident. The single crime exception does not apply to drug convictions at all. However, it is not clear whether an individual may be entitled to both exceptions, that is, one minor crime and one crime committed under the age of 18 years. source: http://www.golishlaw.com/crimlawt/usinaddm.htm If you had less than one ounce in your possession than it is NOT a crime of moral turpitude (thank goodness) as of 2000.

Has anyone been to America with criminal record?
This depends. The US has a 'List of crimes of Moral Turpitude' that it consults when deciding whether to permit entry to an individual with a criminal record. This list includes offences such as murder, rape, forgery, prostitution and fraud. If you have a criminal record that is included in the list, and this record is discovered by US customs, you risk arrest, seizure of your assets, possible incarceration, and a lifetime ban from entering the United States. That said, if you committed a crime not considered to be of moral turpitude, you will most likely not encounter difficulties entering the US (although I make no promises). If you have committed a crime of moral turpitude and wish to travel to the US, you can apply for what is known as a US entry waiver. Once granted, this waiver will allow you to legally travel in the US for a specified time period (usually 1-5 years). Hope this helps!
