Quick Reference Chart on the Immigration Consequences of Delinquency

From the introduction:

“Although not a conviction for immigration purposes, a delinquency adjudication still can create problems for immigrants. Certain grounds of inadmissibility (bars to obtaining legal status) and deportability (loss of current legal status) do not depend upon conviction; mere “bad acts” or status can trigger the penalty. The following are commonly applied conduct-based grounds of inadmissibility and/or deportability and the juvenile court dispositions that might provide the government with evidence that the person comes within the ground.”
