I got a traffic ticket and was asked to appear in the district court in NC. The speeding traffic ticket did not the amount of fine.
When I went to the distcrict, a person was asking everyone why they are there. It was not judge. I went to him with my speeding ticket and he wrote $185 on the ticket and asked me to go downstair and make a payment. I made the cash payment and asked the disposition letter. The lady told me that keep the receipt and thats all. The receipt says the clear of court.
Now I am woried if I need some kind of letter from the court?
it was in 2003.


I had another traffic ticket in 2002 and I sent the $162. I had sent it with return receiptwith certified mail. and I have the return receipt signed by the receiver and all the receipts from the post office. I never got any receipt from the traffic bureau. I also have the copy of the postal Is it sufficient?

It is getting worried now.
Thank you.
 
Take whatever documentation you have with you to the interview and explain clearly that you paid the fines for these tickets. If these are your only tickets, you're in pretty good shape because they weren't greater than $500, happened a while back and there is no pattern of rash driving. I just had one traffic ticket back in 1998 and I didn't even have anything that proved I paid it. I just explained to the IO and she changed my answer on that citation question to no on the N-400 app form. Different IOs handle this question differently but you should be fine with what you have.
 
You can contact the court. Chances are they will have your record. They usually give you disposition for a small fee. If they don't have, then explain to the IO

Hi,
I was looking for the rule which says that we dont have to send the documentation for traffic tickets less than $500. I could not find this. Can some one please point me to teh place for this rule. I remember reading it some where but I searched the n400 instruction and I could not find this.
thanks

7. If I have been convicted of a crime but my record has been
expunged, do I need to write that on my application or tell a
USCIS officer?

Yes. You should always be honest with USCIS about all:
• Arrests (even if you were not charged or convicted);
• Convictions (even if your record was cleared or expunged);
• Crimes you have committed for which you were not arrested or convicted; and
• Any countervailing evidence, or evidence in your favor concerning the
circumstances of your arrests, and/or convictions or offenses that you would like
USCIS to consider.
Even if you have committed a minor crime, USCIS may deny your application if you
do not tell the USCIS officer about the incident. Note that unless a traffic incident was
alcohol or drug related, you do not need to submit documentation for traffic fines and
incidents that did not involve an actual arrest if the only penalty was a fine less than
$500 and/or points on your driver’s license.
