Get a lawyer. Why should we let your turpitudinous posterior back into the country if you can't behave yourself?

If you read the purpose of a visitor visa, you will clearly see it is not so that you can steal anything that will fit in your baggage. I do not foresee another visa being issued to you for visitation.

A single conviction of a crime of moral turpitude within five years of admission makes one inadmissible under section 212 of the INA. There is a petty offense exception that may apply depending on the law with which one is convicted.

Pleading guilty constitutes a conviction.

You need a criminal defense attorney familiar with the immigration consequences of a New York shoplifting charge.
