Citizenship.

I assume that when you say KY case got denied, that was the naturalization application. Generally speaking, a person with a violation and conditional discharge for one year which has ended is eligible for naturalization immediately. However, naturalization requires that an individual demonstrate good moral character for the required period of time, which in most cases is five years unless married and living with a US citizen. So relevant questions before giving the all clear are what is on the disposition, was there an allocution before the court in which you admitted more than was on the violation, and whether you admitted to an offense other than the violation during the immigration interview.
