Yes, if you have a first time pardon, it will not show. You will be able to get a passport

Yes. Only the Governor of a state can grant a pardon.
If you meet the conditions of the pardon.
Write the Governors Office.
While Boards or Commissions may exist to advise them on this subject, only the Governor of a state or the President of the US can grant a pardon.
A "criminal pardon" is when an official issuing the pardon is knowingly involved in a criminal act (midemeanor of felony) interfaced with the pardon. Example... A State Governor accepts a bribe for issuing a pardon.
If you are asking if you can REQUEST a pardon on a Class B felony, yes, you probably can. Depending on the state that convicted you, write either the Attorney General's Office or the Governor's Office.
Any time you are convicted of a felony it follows you forever. In certain states if you don't get arrested for anything over the next ten years barring sex offenses and other violent crimes, you may be able to get a pardon-- it's up to the Governor's office of your state.
Forever, unless you get a presidential pardon or something.
That depends. IF the felony was for violation of a Federal law, OR a conviction for a crime of Domestic Violence, the FEDERAL law prohibits you from possessing a firearm, unless you receive a pardon from the President. If it was a State crime, and was NOT a crime of Domestic Violence, AND it has been 10 years since you were released, you CAN apply for a pardon by the Governor. Since 2012 there have been 4 pardons issued in Colorado related to restoration of gun rights. Here is a link to the process: http://ccresourcecenter.org/state-restoration-profiles/colorado-restoration-of-rights-pardon-expungement-sealing/Bottom line: Good luck. You have a better chance of winning the lottery.
The President has the power to pardon federal offenders, which means to free them from punishment.
