I have hired an attorney to file my citizenship application. They told me that I do not need to mention speeding or parking tickets if I have paid them. Is that correct? Thanks and best regards!!

gwong said:My questions are
(1) Do I have to bring the traffic court records and DMV records from CA and PA to the interview? If I do, where can I get those information? Online or I have to fly back to CA and PA to get them from the court?
gwong said:(2) I checked a NO on question 16 of my application because I did not know speeding and parking tickets are considered citation. Should I send an amanedment to the service center or should I wait till the interview to rectify the mistake.
ocworker said:n400 form requires you to disclose all citations.
traffic ticket is one kind of citations.
I believe you can come up the answer for your question. right?
if you are still confused, the answer is, you need to disclose the traffic tickets. period.
however, parking tickets are not the citations thou.
Scruit said:You have to be honest. I was told directly by an INS supervisor that failure to mention my traffic ticket would have definitely made her deny my visa application, even though the ticket itself would not have. The fact that I mentioned it showed that I was honest, and she approved me.
genesis1 said:The INS is not interested in a person's driving skills. It is surprising that people keep talking about DMV record, when that has nothing to do with citizenship application. I know a lot of persons on this forum will disagree, but tickets are a non-issue, and there is no point volunteering and giving information to the INS officers when they don't require it.
Of course that does not mean a person should have "10 unpaid parking tickets!"
All the best!!
JoeF said:Yeah, this is an absurd question
I remember a similar one on the I-485.
Exactly.
The thing is that on the N-400, you sign this statement: "I certify, under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America, that this application, and the evidence submitted with it, are all true and correct."
If you don't list citations that you have, you commit perjury, which is much more serious than speeding citations, and can really get you into trouble.
