I was convicted of selling drugs back in 1999. I have completed 5years of parole and are tryig toget legal gainful employment, What can I do to remove this charge from my record?

How old were you when you were convicted? Don't know if they'll expunge a felony drug conviction... Have you checked your state statutes regarding this?

You need to wait at least 9 or 10 years before you can attempt this. In the meantime, keep filling out applications.

Yes in a few more years you can hire an attorney and make application to have it explunged, you will show in court where you have done everything you needed to do, have also held steady jobs and perhaps increased your education

And why type of employment have you done the last 5 years > illegal?
So you work, and find the best jobs you can
