Juvenile Offender Problem

A friend of mine is applying via his father, a permanent resident, to enter the US on a family visa (unmarried child under 21). He has one major issue, he was charged with a theft offence when he was 14. What is the consequence?
From reading the code, it looks like his inadmissability will be waived as the offence was committed before he was 18. Are there any other issues to consider, such as the time since the offence?

Thanks
