    You entered a guilty plea, so whatever the disposition of the charge by state authorities the USCIS may regard you as convicted. You should have consulted an immigration lawyer about the plea bargain and charge; unless and until you identify the exact statute to which you plead guilty I'm not going to try to guess as to whether it's a CIMT or aggravated felony. If you don't want to post it, consult an immigration lawyer with the details.

    There's no clock or calendar by which the deportation process starts - if your conviction offense triggers deportation proceedings, those proceedings will happen when they happen.
