Seeking Legal Residence with a Felony

9 years ago
I'm close to retirement age and I'm considering retiring overseas, particularly in France. When I read the procedures for requesting a visa, it mentioned about declining the request if I have a felony. I'm very embarrassed about it, but it happened almost 15 years ago (B&E w/destruction of property) with a former girlfriend. I paid for damages and probation which is all complete. Is the anyway to get around it and eventually obtain legal residence.
