WHAT OFFENSES CAN HINDER YOUR IMMIGRATION STATUS?

September 2, 2024

In addition to violent offenses, these include “crimes of moral turpitude” also known as crimes related to vices. These include drug crimes, prostitution, gambling-related offenses, or perjury. Crimes of moral turpitude also include any vile or depraved act, such as public urination or flashing. These crimes, regardless of their legal severity, can make it more difficult for you to be granted a Visa. In addition, any serious criminal offenses will also hurt your chances.


If there is evidence of these crimes in your past, you and your attorney will need to show that you:


Have reformed,

Have completed drug rehabilitation, or

Are otherwise no longer a threat to commit vile or depraved acts.

Understanding The Application Process

The VAWA immigration attorneys at the Lozano Law Firm can help you file the petition and get the evidence you need to prove your case to the court. What can you expect? Well, there’s a process involved.


First, you will receive a notice about two weeks after you have filed the petition. The court will then determine whether or not your application appears to be complete. The court has not approved your petition, but it’s saying that it appears that you meet all the basic requirements. They may also require that you submit more evidence. After your application is approved, you can begin the process of applying for a Green Card.
