  1. since it immigrated
  2. since he immigrated

  5. since his immigrated
Explanation
Answer: B - Pablo is looking for a new home, since he immigrated to the United States last month. The pronoun antecedent is “Pablo.” The pronoun that refers to Pablo should be “he.” It is not referring to a state of ownership or possession. Additionally, Pablo is one man, so the pronoun “they” and “it” would be incorrectly referencing more than one person or an object.
