Hi members,
I have my interview coming up next week and I realized i may have made a mistake. I am soliciting your opinions about disclosing some information pertaining to an arrest.
I was stopped by an officer and was ticketed with driving with a suspended license, i did't know about this suspension as i moved and never received anything in the mail from DMV etc etc the usual excuse,,
I went to court and hired an attorney, the attorney was not prepared well and the case was adjourned. before my new date i traveled outside the country and missed the court date. 1 week after i returned, i was knocked off my bicycle and the ambulance and police came for help, the police officer informed me there's a warrant for my arrest, and came 2 days later to arrest me from my house. I was arrested and fingerprinted and taken to court, saw a judge, told him my circumstances, gave me a new court date. When i went to my court date the judge reduced the sentence and i plead guilty and i pad a fine and surcharge.
I mention on my N-400 application the charge and the disposition.
The question: when i meet the interview officer, should i mentioned that i was arrested because i failed to appear in court the first time ????? or does the charge and disposition i already put down in the form suffice ?????????
Please answer..
