PA LTCF Out of State Expungement Question

[wahsnel]

I will be applying for my LTCF in Allegheny County in the next few weeks. Just need some advice, opinions, experiences, with my situation and the fact that any drug related charge is an immediate dis-qualifier for PA LTCF so my question(s) is related to that. I understand the depth of this question clearly can only be answered by an Attorney, and yes im in the process of finding one. Here we go.

I understand PICS for purchasing a firearm (i fly through firearm purchase PICS background checks in less than 1 min, no joke) and PICS for LTCF is different. So here is my situation, my unfortunate situation 10 years ago. I had a misdemeanor charge from a different state (max 1 Year) in 2012. 5 years after the incident, i was eligible for expungement, subsequently, it is was expunged/sealed from my record. I have documents stating that "Petitioner can be treated as if the petitioner has never been convicted of the offense"

My question is does PA acknowledge this? Ive researched a lot about PA, that expunged records, expunged/pardoned, in PA are good enough to pass LTCF PICS. SO how does my out of state expungement sit?
