Re: Regarding permanent resident
Yes! under the immiration law Sec.237
INA, 8 USC, any crime of dmoestic vilolence anytime after addmisssion is cause for deportation. Your application will be rejected and the agency will likely begin removal proceedings. The crimminal incident should be reviewed for for its effect on your immigratino status.
