A criminal record, on file, in the public records, and not sealed, is on record forever; unless, for some statutory reason, particular to a jurisdiction, that record is expunged (removed, generally, marked or whited-out). Just about every state in the US has provisions for the removal of certain criminal records which meet specific requirements.
Most states have a way out depending on the crime or if you had deferred adjudication probation. In Texas felonies can be sealed non disclosed in 5 years, misdemeanors 2 years or immediately. So you have to do some research and dig into what's your states law.
