Yes.
the case was dismissed before a trial even happened. This is what made me think it wasn’t a conviction.
I’m beginning to think that the big factor deciding wether or not it counts as a conviction is the finding of guilt?
It makes it even more complicated because the two countries laws are so different.
From uscis I found this “If the accused is directed to attend a pre-trial diversion or intervention program, where no admission or finding of guilt is required, the order may not count as a conviction for immigration purposes.”
