A: This is confusing, because you indicate that you pled guilty, so warrants are not the issue.

If you are inadmissible based upon a deportation order and/or the criminal convictions, then you must seek a waiver of inadmissibility if you may qualify for one. You may also need to file for advanced permission to re-apply. Otherwise, you cannot lawfully return to the United States. Your criminal court record is usually permanent, so it is about what you admitted that you did in Court. You are obligated to disclose all arrests and convictions.

This is a complicated situation, so you ought to hire an immigration attorney to decide whether you should proceed, or when!
