You should answer Yes for arrested question and bring court disposition letter at the time of interview. Even after expungment, you are supposed to answer Yes to that question.

USCIS has access to expunged records (indirectly via the FBI). They expect you list all arrests, even if expunged.

How long ago was the arrest? I am not a lawyer but if it was dismissed and you didn't get into trouble since, then you should be fine based on the cases of the members on this board.

Good luck and welcome.
