Upon review of my application I noticed that I unintentionally answered "no" to a question that I was not sure how to respond. The question on the application asks if one has a prior arrest record except for traffic violations. This is the ambiguous part, In 98' I was pulled over for running a stop sign and my tag had expired. In all honesty I had moved and when it came time to renew my insurance, the company sent it to a prior address and I never got a bill.
I did not even have knowledge that the license was suspended, because I was always renewing the insurance once a year. Anyway within an hour of the arrest, I was out of the station and shopping for insurance. I did meet all court requirements and took defensive driving in order to remove any points on the DL. Any and all fees were paid in full. According to the question I understood that the incident qualified as "except traffic violation" and thus my no answer to the question. I do not want the department to think that I intentionally lied. English is my 2nd language and I honestly misunderstood the question.
Please advise as to what is the best thing to do. Should I send the letter of explanation with the RFE that INS sent requesting additional info on some other documents ie medical, fingerprints.. or should I wait until interview.
Thanks so much
