Q.

H1B already filed and got a DUI

I am getting my MBA and with a job offer I applied for the H1B through the company's lawyers about two weeks ago (haven't heard back yet). After the application was submitted, I got arrested for a DUI and will have the first hearing next Monday. Do I have to let the lawyers know immediately or can it wait until I know the status of the DUI conviction? Is there anyway to keep this off my record? Will it automatically make me ineligible for the H1b?
