Legal Question in Immigration Law in New York
How will arrest record affect US citizen application and security check?
I was arrested for shop lifting a year ago. Got fingerprinted. Because I was at depression condition, the court gave an ADT (Adjunct Dismisal) charge.
How will the arrest record affect my future US citizenship application? What if I do not apply but my husband apply. Will my record affect his application? I also got an offer to join a financial company. Their security check requires fingerprint. Will my record show up to the employer?
Thank you.

A lawyer should carefully review your criminal record and determine if this will affect your naturalization status and what to do so that you can legalize.
Your criminal record will not affect your spouse.
