[quote=GUESTWEED GUEST,417579]I am a college graduate looking to teach English overseas. I was recently caught with a small amount of pot, and charged with misdemeanor marijuana possession (less than 20 grams). I go to court tomorrow, where there is a 99% chance I will be given a pretrial diversion program. At the end of the program, my charges will be dropped. Does anyone have experience with getting a work visa with a pretrial diversion program on their record? Even if I get my record expunged and the charges are dropped, there will still be a record of my arrest and fingerprinting, which rules me out of working in Korea as they do an FBI background check. Kind of ridiculous that "charges dropped" doesn't actually mean that.[/quote]
