A couple of questions, good character
I would like to know if anyone has past experience with acquiring a visa while having a criminal record? 5 years ago I got charged for DUI (driving under influence). I want to know if I still have chances of getting a visa (136) or should I just forget about it?
It's bothering me quite a bit, I started gathering all the information I needed to migrate to australia, even started to look for a potential employer but I need to know if I still have a chance with my criminal record.
Thanks,
Will

Providing you are honest about it on your application you should be fine. Also a letter indicating your regret etc at the offence wouldn't go amiss.
