Should I disclose my traffic violations in my citizenship application?
Asked on Sep 03rd, 2014 on Immigration - California
More details to this question:
I have 2 traffic violations. The first was in 2004 or 2005 for vehicle inspection violation. I paid the court fee and cleared it. The second one was in 2006 or 2007 where I jumped the traffic light and got a camera ticket. I paid that online. On my N-400 application I did not mention any of these. I have my interview scheduled next week and one of my friends mentioned that I should have mentioned these in the application. Now I got my driving records from DMV , I also checked for the court disposition records. Both are clean. The DMV has no reference and the courts have no reference of the fees paid. I am not sure if I should disclose if asked specifically by the IO or proactively tell them because I have no proof whatsoever. Your advise is very much appreciated. Thank you.
