Immigration Forum / USA Marriage Base / June 2006Another Question on Traffic Tickets
Does anybody know if minor traffic tickets for which you paid a fine and took a traffic school need to be mentioned when you apply for naturalization? I think those don't go into the DMV driving record. Do you need to mentioned all the traffic violations including those that didn't go into the diving records? Thanks, IP. > Does anybody know if minor traffic tickets for which > you paid a fine and took a traffic school need to be [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Thanks, > IP. Always mention everything ...... it can do no harm Not mentioning can ..... > Does anybody know if minor traffic tickets for which > you paid a fine and took a traffic school need to be [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Thanks, > IP. The question specifically asks whether you have "ever" been cited. What do you think?

The only problem is to remember exact date since this isn't even on DMV record - It was cleared by taking on-line traffic school lessons. They allow to do this in CA if it is not a serious ticket and there wasn't another one within eighteen month. I guess that approximate date would do then. Thanks for your help, IP. > >> Does anybody know if minor traffic tickets for which > >> you paid a fine and took a traffic school need to be [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > Thanks for your help, > IP. Hi IP, When you took the class, they should have given you a receipt. Always keep a copy of everything important, like this. Rene > >> Does anybody know if minor traffic tickets for which > >> you paid a fine and took a traffic school need to be [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > Thanks for your help, > IP. * Tell 'em you had it and what it was for. * Tell 'em you can't remember the exact date by using the "On or around" verbage. * Look at your bank/credit card statement and find when you paid the traffic school fee. * Copy the bank/credit card statement and enclose with relevant line item highlighted. * Send off for a 5-year certified MVD record (which is hopefully blank!) and send 'em a copy of that, too. You should be good to go! Ian you can be a jerk with your answers. Read this carefully straight from the USCIS.GOV website concerning traffic tickets: For example, if you have been arrested or convicted of a crime, you must send a certified copy of the arrest report, court disposition, sentencing and any other relevant documents, including any countervailingevidence concerning the circumstances of your arrest and/or conviction that you would like USCIS to consider. Note that unless a traffic incident was alcohol or drug related, you do not need to submit documentation for traffic fines and incidents that did not involve an actual arrest if the only penalty was a fine of less than $500 and/or points on your driver's license. Now what part of : "you do not need to submit documentation for traffic fines and incidents that did not involve an actual arrest if the only penalty was a fine of less than $500 and/or points on your driver's license."DO YOU not understand??????? >> Does anybody know if minor traffic tickets for which >> you paid a fine and took a traffic school need to be [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > >Ian > Does anybody know if minor traffic tickets for which > you paid a fine and took a traffic school need to be [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Thanks, > IP. Relevant Instructions for N-400 (http://www.uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/files/n- 400ins.pdf) "All applicants must send certain documents with their application. For example, if you have been arrested or convicted of a crime, you must send a certified copy of the arrest report, court disposition, sentencing and any other relevant documents, including any countervailing evidence concerning the circumstances of your arrest and/or conviction that you would like USCIS to consider. Note that unless a traffic incident was alcohol or drug related, you do not need to submit documentation for traffic fines and incidents that did not involve an actual arrest if the only penalty was a fine of less than $500 and/or points on your driver's license." > Relevant Instructions for N-400 (http://www.uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/files/n- > 400ins.pdf) [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > involve an actual arrest if the only penalty was a fine of less than > $500 and/or points on your driver's license." The OP's question was whether or not to disclose the violation. While you don't need to include documentation if the fine was less than $500, you must still disclose the violation.

No. She was not cited for a driving infraction but ticketed most likely by a meter maid or the male equivalent.  SignatureI'm not an attorney. This disclaimer is valid in NYS! > No. She was not cited for a driving infraction but ticketed most > likely by a meter maid or the male equivalent. Just a sec... I'm having a memory... here it comes... <singing> Lovely Rita, meter maid Lovely Rita, meter maid Oh lovely Rita, meter maid, where would I be without you... </singing> Oh... how apropos! :) Ian > The OP's question was whether or not to disclose the violation.

Thanks for reiterating the point of the relevant quotation. > Does anybody know if minor traffic tickets for which > you paid a fine and took a traffic school need to be [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > Thanks, > IP. I did after talking with my lawyer in-depth about it. As a note the officer did make some notations to the effect during the interview. I did not have the original citation but a quick trip to the courthouse fixed that. |
