2 DUI and Citizenship

3 views 3 answers
In May 12, 2005 I got arrested for Misdemeanor DUI that registered 0.14 on the breathalyzer which denied approval for my citizenship on DEC 14, 2005 . After my informal probation of 3 years ended in May 12, 2008 , I got another Misdemeanor DUI in 09/07/2008 with an alcohol level of less than 0.14. I was again placed on probation which ended on 09/08/2011. I wanted to know if I'm eligible for Naturalization? Any Professional Feedback is Appreciated

The DUI was committed outside the statutory good moral character period. Check. You are no longer on probation. Check. In my experience handling citizenship cases at the USCIS San Jose Field Office, I think you have a decent chance if you can show rehabilitation. You should consult with an experienced attorney who deals with naturalization cases like these.
