I am planning to relocate to Germany with my family. I am currently a citizen of India. I've got a permanent position in a reputed software firm in Berlin. They are ready to sponsor my visa and help me relocate.

But there is a problem, 18 months back I did a grave mistake by driving after drinking. I was caught in routine checkup and was little over the limit ( i was 0.38 while limit here is 0.3). This case went to court and I pleaded guilty.

Now I need to start processing the Visa, I'm not able to find any guidelines about how Germany thinks of immigrants with these kind of misdemeanor.

Please help me with any pointers about this.
