Would having a class c misdemeanor affect applying for a job permit under obama''s new plan? It was a minor in possession of alcohol

A Class C misdemeanor for being a minor in possession of alcohol would not affect your application for a job permit under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program as long as it was not connected with operating a vehicle at the same time. It would count as a non-significant misdemeanor of which you would have to have three to endanger your successful participation in the program.
