DUI-Will affect my reapplication? - Page 2

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!

Pinche borracho!
Chupitos. LOL

I actually don't feel bad for you at all, you knew what you were getting yourself into. I really doubt your case will get renewed. A DUI is a danger to the public and that's what immigration is focusing its resources on. I wish you good luck, but do not trust a hope in this case. Again, Good luck!

Well I had a dui and i got it expunged before applying for DACA, I worked my case with a criminal/immigration lawyer, he lawyered the f.. out of showing how in the totality of circumstances it was only one mistake, it took me a while to get approved though.

I feel how frustrating it could be, but DUI is a DUI. Like many others asked, it really matters what you were convicted of. In my past years, I was charged with Domestic Violence (there's a long long story to this) and I was CONVICTED of simple assault 4th deg. In my case, If I was convicted of DV, I would not have been a qualified applicant but since I wasn't convicted of DV, it didn't stop me from applying for DACA.

Now that was my experience talking and here's my opinion on your case.

If you were CONVICTED of DUI then I suggest don't reapply and just live until Obama brings out a miracle. Problem with reapplying is that DUI is an unforgivable crime in U.S. and I love drinking too, I've drank outside before, I've been in a car who was DUI. and the moment I applied for DACA, whenever I had to drive, I never drank over 3 bottles of beers, One or Two shots of Jagger Bomb. DUI is listed as a significant misdemeanor and it will get you denied if you apply for DACA. Lastly, I would never call DUI a simple mistake because we all new the consequences to DUI.

I'm not saying all this to make you feel offended or treated like a criminal. From this, you need to understand that this one is going to be a pain in the balls to revoke.
My suggestion is, go find an criminal defense attorney. There's nothing immigrant attorneys can do at this point. You have to find a way to reduce your crime to something insignificant (defined by USCIS) or get it expunged or something. It needs to be completely off your record.

I feel you on this, I know how sky-falling-down on the face this is.
I really hope the best for you, if anything changes, let us know maybe someone here can help you out...!

Good Luck!

Damn, those of you with DUI's or expunged DUI's are upsetting. It's so difficult not to be mean and offensive to people like you. I'm going to take the high road on this one. I hope you guys learn from your mistakes, stop endangering the lives of other people on the road, and learn how to use services like uber if you want to drink. Be smart adults please.

A DUI will disqualify you from DACA, but also remember that DACA is on a case by case basis so if you can prove you are the best person in the world. i.e you do a lot of volunteering, have perfect grades, are really involved in a church or religious organization, saved the life of an infant, etc. Then you MIGHT have a chance at renewing. A lot of judgmental people here..

Hey man, so what happened at the end? I am now in the same boat as you so I need to figure out what I must do.

I think its odd that you only replied back to the comment that you wanted to hear. you need to understand its a case by case, but in my opinion you're pretty much wasting time and money reapplying and only putting yourself up for removal proceedings. I wish you the best, because you never know what will happen.

try # 2

Trump has the list now. You could have not done this at a worse time. If they pass the DREAMact i hope they don't make any exceptions regarding DUI's.


WIthout the "BAD" word...


yo admin, next time edit the post, don't delete it all, thanks.

Maybe we should be worried about Trump keeping DACA instead of already finding groups he should leave out.
