 |
|
When I did my state cbc it showed was completely clean. But in the interest of time I am checking out doing a local background check which would show one speeding ticket and one no seatbelt ticket. Would these offenses be a big deal when submitting my immigration info? Has any one been denied because of similar offenses?
Thanks all,
BM |

| I'm not sure where you're located, but a Criminal Background Check usually only shows arrests. Getting a ticket (moving violation) that doesn't include an arrest shouldn't appear. But then again, that's how things work in my home state. |

My driving record was not on my CBC, but in the interest of Full Disclosure, I revealed every illegal lane change, speeding, illegal left turn, etc, to the Consular General. At least I started. After the third violation, he asked me if I had done anything that doesn't involve driving a car, and I said no. We moved on with the interview. |

| In the US does it appear on your record if you were arrested but not charged? |

That depends entirely on the Immi officer and the mood he's in. This is K-land... submitting anything 'negative' is only asking for trouble/potentially 'shooting yourself in the foot'. In the interest of expediency, it's not worth taking the chance. |

| OK thanks guys, kinda what I figured. The lady at the court was an uber b/tch so when I get home I figure I will have a state level one ready to fill out and I'll go do a local, if anything shows on the local Ill do the state. Se La vi. Thanks for the info though. |

| Ironically, having some sort of moving violation would gain you high praise from the rank and file drivers in Korea..... probably most teachers, I'd imagine. |
