You cannot leave your state of residence without the permission of your probation officer AND the judge of the court where you were sentenced. You need to set up an appointment with your PO to fill out travel permission documents, and then get them signed by the judge. You'll have to convince the court to allow you to leave the country. If either the PO or the judge denies your request, and finds out that you left the state where you are on probation, YOU will be liable to pay for the extradition costs to return you to your state.

It's not that the American government checks you out but that the other country you're going to will check you out. Canada, for example, will refuse you entry if you've committed a criminal offense in another country. It really depends which country you're going to and whether they share criminal data with the US.
My advice would be to go to the government webpage of the country you want to visit. Check out their rules.

You still may travel with permission.You must apply to the courts in order to get this order.I live in Canada.My ex has gone through the same thing,he was allowed to travel.I do know there are some restrictions,and it also depends on the charges and previous criminal history.Good luck.

Get permission from your probation officer. If she or he disagrees then you CAN NOT go.
Good Luck and Take Care
