Re: immigration filing
The offense has to be revealed to USCIS, and they can see the record. He may lose his residency. Hire an immigration lawyer immediately.
Re: immigration filing
In many cases, a juvenile adjudication is not considered a �conviction� for immigration purposes and may allow someone who is an adult permanent resident in the U.S. to apply for citizenship. Any conviction, however, may have serious consequences and I would need much more information to before advising on whether or not to file for citizenship.
