Expungement does not matter for immigration processing. You MUST disclose it every time.

Two different things. For any Immigration related matter you have to fill forms truthfully. As regards the security check by private employers the Expungement MAY help.

What is the success rate of getting visa for expungement case. Also do i have to disclose for any employer?

[pontevecchio]

The government will have access and hence you mention that in every form asking for that information. You would have to read up or ask the Expungement lawyer. Generally if the arrest and disposition and every thing concerning the arrest is expunged by law you can say no to arrests and sue any employer who uses the power of the Internet to find any wrong doing like mug shots. vISA FOR ANY CASE DEPENDS ON THE POTENTIAL SEVERITY OF THE OFFENSE. Make sure to discuss your issue with an Immigration Lawyer before you go to get the visa.

Hi, I traveled to USA 3 years ago on a tourist visa and was caught shoplifting. I pled guilty and paid the fee and came back to India. The case is now settled but not expunged. Can i visit USA again/ Should I go for expungement so the usics can't see my record at port of entry?

Please let me know
