Hey, I found this topic searching for the same thing as OP. I was convicted of a DUI 4 years ago in NJ and had license suspended for 7 months.
DUI in NJ is not a criminal offense, but a traffic violation. Are you sure I should answer YES to all of the following:
Have you ever been charged with committing any crime or offense?
Have you ever been convicted of a crime or offense?
Have you ever received a suspended sentence, been placed on probation, or been paroled?
Should I explain that it's a traffic violation in NJ or just assume they know?
Also, what is "CIMT"? And what do you mean by "statutory period"?
Never thought that incident would cause a concern come time for citizenship.
Thanks!
