A: You should consult with a competent immigration attorney. Bring copies of the police arrest report, charging document, PTI agreement and nolle prosequi document for review. It may not satisfy the definition of conviction for immigration purposes and, depending on the language of the PTI agreement, may not constitute an admission of having committed a crime that might otherwise serve as a ground of inadmissibility. (Note: There was recently a Board of Immigration Appeals case in which the Board indicated that entry into a particular Texas pre-trial intervention program qualified as having been convicted for immigration purposes. See Matter of Mohamed, 27 I&N Dec. 92 (BIA 2017). The facts and procedural history of your case should be analyzed against the standards laid out in Matter of Mohamed.)
