Tano Seth yes it can be denied cuz it falls under not being a good character now days they look at these things very carefully in longer run pay it off first then apply for citizenship cuz if you just applied and dint pay the out standing dues they can even put in the category of defrauding the government I know some1 personally who has had bad experience similar to that and now he can't apply for citizenship for 10 years
