Hi Everyone, i really hope this forum can give me some knowledge because i feel that I'm in such a mess. heres my story:
I came from Cuba back in 1996 (i was 6 years old) and was granted permanent residency in 8/2004. I'm 24 years old now and I'm in need to renew my green card by 08/2015. The problem is that i got into quite some trouble throughout the years.
1) 2010 I had a car accident and was charged with cocaine possession and DUI: Cocaine possession charges were dropped before it even went into court and DUI was reduced to Reckless driving. I never did jail time just completed an advocate program. (FL)
2) 2011 I got pulled over in Dayton, OH and got charged with OVI. (Operating vehicle under the influence): Everything was dismissed/ dropped and i did not have any penalties/fees or programs.
3) 2012 I got arrested in Detroit, MI with two B&E a Vehicle with Damage (Felony), Burglar tools possession (Felony) ,and fin. transdev.-steal/retain wo/consent (Felony). out of those i ended up pleading guilty to the following : 2 (Misdemeanors) for Receive/ and conceal stolen property ($200 or more but less than 1,000). for this i had to pay a $500 dollar fine but no jail nor program.
Writing this all out is scary, and depressing but i need advice as what to do. since those events I've gotten my life back together and been dedicated to working and going to school. I will receive my RN license within the next 3 months.
What should i do? Should i just submit papers to renew green card? should i give it a shot and apply for citizenship? any advice, experiences, similar stories welcome
I know cant get deported since I'm a cuban refugee but i can still get a deportation status. I'm super scared about all this. The US is the only home i know.
Thank you so much
