Also, if you were a minor (under 18 years of age) these offenses might be sealed and practically nonexistent.

The key is to find what you were actually convicted of, if anything. Paying a fine does not result in a guilty verdict in many cases.

You need to find out what you were actually convicted of.

Good point Jim. It will depend on how the alcohol was obtained. If they are Class 3 violations, then they should be equivalent to Class C here, and you may be OK.

Re: misdemeanor question

IANAL, but these are two Arizona Class 1 misdemeanors (same as Texas Class A misdemeanor) alcohol offenses within 10 years. So if I am not mistaken, it would be considered under GC 11.172 (15) (c) as being chemically depended and you would not be eligible.See http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/ftp/forms/ls-16.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.
