Issue # 1:
I have total 5 speeding tickets and one ticket about not carrying current auto insurance and one for expired Registration sticker. I showed proof of current Auto Insurance and proof of Registration in court and those were dismissed upon paying court fees.
I have all the proof of payment and court issued letters. Letters certify that the cases were dismissed due to successful Driving Safety Courses and paid court fees and fines.
I checked “Yes” to” Have you ever been arrested, cited, or detained” question. I am sending all the proofs of all tickets along with the N-400 applications.
Will I have any issue with having too many tickets? Or is it normal to have these many tickets in last 10 years?

Issue# 2:
There were some papers like I-20, SSN, and Federal Tax Returns where part of my Middle Name got merged with my Last Name. I corrected it long back and I did not mention them on I-485, I-751 forms since it was not really “Other Name Used”. However, mentioning them on N-400 as “Other Name Used”.
I would really appreciate if some “Subject Matter Experts” can put some light on my preparations and issues. Sorry for the long and boring post.
