Most felonies and misdemeanors are eligible to be expunged from your criminal record so long as you meet your state's eligibility requirements. In most states, you have to wait at least five years from the date of your conviction to apply for an expungement. Once your record is expunged, you can legally say that you have never been convicted of a crime. The legal term for an expungement is "Application To Set Aside Conviction".
