If someone was convicted for a crime involving moral turpitude... very stupid thing and there was the smallest possible penalty given without any prison or imprisonment will the clause II still apply to crime involving moral turpitude or just the clause I ? there is mentioned the word '' or'' so I do not really understand this. Someone can relate?
(I) a crime involving moral turpitude (other than a purely political offense) or an attempt or conspiracy to commit such a crime, or
(II) a violation of (or a conspiracy or attempt to violate) any law or regulation of a State, the United States, or a foreign country relating to a controlled substance (as defined in section 102 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 802)), is inadmissible.
(ii) Exception.-Clause (i)(I) shall not apply to an alien who committed only one crime if-
(I) the crime was committed when the alien was under 18 years of age, and the crime was committed (and the alien released from any confinement to a prison or correctional institution imposed for the crime) more than 5 years before the date of application for a visa or other documentation and the date of application for admission to the United States, or
(II) the maximum penalty possible for the crime of which the alien was convicted (or which the alien admits having committed or of which the acts that the alien admits having committed constituted the essential elements) did not exceed imprisonment for one year and, if the alien was convicted of such crime, the alien was not sentenced to a term of imprisonment in excess of 6 months (regardless of the extent to which the sentence was ultimately executed).
Exception Criminal Ground - Can someone please explain?

Thank you so much for the answer.
i took it from the US government page.
I got a penalty just paid 250 euro and was covicted for fraud. When I was younger I was then 25 years old and I am 28 now. I changed a price label (70euro difference) for shoes and was caught.
i am a spouse of us citizen and I am abroad waiting for the I130 approval.
i dont know what steps should I do next. Will it be an waiver for me? Or am I inadmissable?
