It depends upon the rest of his record. If there are no other arrests/convictions, the one DUI would probably not disqualify him from obtaining a "green card," or obtain lawful permanent residence status.
There are a few ways of obtaining LPR status:
Through a family member;
Through a business sponser;
By a finding of asylum;
Being a national of a specific country, i.e. Cuba;
Being a fiance of a citizen...
Please check the links below for further qualifications.
The first link is the web site of a private attorney, and it is very informative.
The second site is the BCIS (Immigration) web site.
Good luck.

It won't affect as DUI is not a CIMT. Lot of people with H1B went out of country for stamping...got married and brought their spouses also to USA. It will also not matter with citizenship. Good luck.
