Felony Visa Info

7 years ago

I'm sorry if this is totally redundant, but all I could find in the history seemed to be about someone named Minga. This is my first post and first day on this forum, so I apologize again if this is something you have answered a hundred times...please feel free to direct me to the correct link if that is that case.

So I have a felony conviction for drug possession (not trafficking or distribution) and will be on probation for that for another 6 months. I will have completed my Bachelor's degree 6 months after that (next December) and am looking to move permanently to Ecuador around the middle of 2018 (18 months from now).

So ideally I would be moving there roughly a year after completing my punishment for my infraction.

Also, I qualify for the $800 per month pensioner visa as I am retired Army and have a permanent income from my retirement and VA disability rating that is much higher than that amount.

My question is: Based on the information I have provided, is it a realistic goal to relocate there at all, and if so is the timeframe I have layed out realistic as well?

Thank you for reading this and responding.
