Can I be an American citizen if I have DWI?

I believe so.  I would call either the immagration office, or a lawyer that gives free advice.  They can tell you if there is any longer wait time, etc.

Your drivers license is an ID as long as it is current.\n\nIt is against the law to possess two from of ID from different states.

I know people who've been charged with DWI on roller blades.   In NJ a DWI conviction (which is almost impossible to beat) carries a 3000.00 'Surcharge' in addition to the other fees and penalties.   The NJ extortion link shows how bad it gets.  \n\nBut the short version is you can get a DWI for moving on anything including a wheelchair.

Canadians can have dual citizenship.  Can Americans?

The only way to do that would be to prove that you are here legally ...green card etc...other than that if you dont have a ssn or a birth certificate they will not allow you to process a license request ...\n\nSorry

The answer is you can lose your status. A permanet resident (not a citizen) can lose their opportunity to stay here(America) if they break a variety of laws. There are 15 violations listed of the paperwork... A simple DUI IS GROUNDS, not being able to support yourself......It's a very interesting ambigous law....

I found this}}}   EWI: or Entered Without Inspection, means entering the United States without being inspected by an Immigration official.  Most commonly this means crossing the Mexican or Canadian border without having any contact with an Immigration official.  A foreign national who enters the U.S. EWI generally cannot apply for legal status from within the United States, with the exception of asylum applicants and individuals with applications for adjustment grandfathered in under 245i.\n\n Try browsing more in this site. I'm trying to find that info myself

DO you have a Social Security Number.  I know that and a valid drivers license are considered proof that you are a U.S> citizen for employment.  \n\nYou could contact the SS administration in where you live

If you are here on an F4 *visa* (dependant of student), you cannot apply for citizenship at all.\n\nIf you entered as an F4 immigrant category (4th preference family based - sibling of a U.S. citizen), it is important when your permanent residency was granted (the date on the green card).\n\nRequirements for citizenship are:\n- Continuous residence: no trips abroad lasting more than 6 months at a time. \n- Physical presence: at least 30 months of total time spent in the USA.\n\nIn some way, this is good news for you -- if you can be in the USA for 2.5 years by the time you leave for your home country, and then come back for 2 days every 6 months afterwards (5 trips), you should theoretically be fine. \n\nUSCIS officers do have some discretion in determining your intent to live in the USA, and being absent for almost all of the last 2.5 years of your residency might not look good. \n\nA less well-known requirement is that you must be a resident of a particular single *state* 3 months before applying for citizenship -- I'm not sure what state residency means -- it may be as simple as having a particular driver's license.

I don't know how it works in your country but here in the USA if you get a ride from the police to the the police station they have arrested you... wether or not they hold you and is up to them but you can be certain that at the time of the ride you were told your rights and in fact arrested maybe not charged but arrested. So I would get a Visa to be safe and Hell yes we would find out right away. I know people always refer to us as Dumb Americans but playing and being dumb are far different my friend!!!!

A bench warrant will be issued for your arrest. While the PD won't actively pursue it, getting pulled over for a traffic violation becomes a major problem. So go do it - not because of the arrest factor but because it's your duty as a US citizen. We're entitled to a trial by a jury of our peers. You wouldn't want your peers skipping out if god forbid, you were on trial!

Not that I know of.  But there are countries that allow "naturalized" citizens to do so.  Canada, for one.

That would be the mayor of the town you live in.\n\nDon't mind the ignorant answers you have gotten thus far. You have chosen to come to our country and become a legal American citizen the "right" way. That's a good thing!!! :)
