[Fabien Kobbar1990 0]

Hello everyone,

I am a green card holder and I have a misdemeanor dismissed recently, it was my first offense . I should to apply the naturalization this year 2017. My worrying is if I have to wait 5 years after the crime.

You need to speak to a lawyer about that. Don't think anyone in here can give you answers. Goodluck!!

Get certified copies of everything from the court and provide it with your application.

What did you do?

I am very grateful for your advices. I was charged for a simple assault (6 months probation and 48 hours community service) for fighting with somebody.

Depends on what the issue was. They will evaluate this under good moral character clause. Better to get advice from an immigration lawyer how they feel about it. Also use the advanced search, maybe someone in the past had a similar issue and shared how it affected his/her naturalization application in detail.

Regardless, a "petty offense exemption" may be in play

I personally would not worry about it too much if it is dismissed. Just get all the related paperwork, include in your application.

Good luck Kobbar.  I think you will have no problems.  Just don't fight with the USCIS interviewer or punch him on the nose.
