would a dwi criminal conviction from 2004 prevent approval of z visa (work visa)?

Question

It seems that you must have no criminal record to get a Z Visa but this seems far too strict as it would cut off many qualified people who have relatively minor criminal records. Would a DWI conviction from 2004 prevent approval of the Z Visa?

Please check that if your DUI conviction has already been cleared from your criminal record first,  or try to clear it now since it may affect your Z visa application to China.
