As long you\'re reported in 485 application and court disposition says you\'ve just paid fine, you might be ok. Again it depends on which state it happened. Some states might such as TX may treat as moral turpitude, in which case it\'ll be tough. Consult an experienced immigration lawyer.

From what I have heard and read, immigration law and civil/criminal law are different, and as long as it is not a very serious offense(Dunno how to categorize serious), I dont think you have any problems. But again, it is best to consult an immigration lawyer.

I do not think you have problems due to DUI. The criminal offenses may be of high security problems to the country and statehood. DUI is very silly in that angle.
