The first step is for an alien to become a lawful permanent resident. Only after he has been a resident for the requisite period of time can he seek naturalization. Having been arrested and charged with a crime does not bar one from becoming a lawful permanent resident. However, a conviction may prevent you from becoming a resident. Some felony convictions result in permanent bars to admission while others can be waived. It is important to know whether your son's father has been convicted of a crime and if yes, what crime was he convicted of violating and what sentence was imposed.
