Que. 41 in DS-230 AND Speeding ticket

[kruz_patz 22]

Hey guys,

I am in the process of filing out DS-230 (immigrant visa appication) for consular processing at bombay.

Que-41 : Have you ever been charged, arrested or convicted of any offense or crime ?

I am planning to go through consular processing, since currently I am in India. But when I was in USA, I got a speeding ticket twice and also one traffic light camera citation ticket. I paid them off by visiting court and they are not even in my driving license record. I don't carry any points on my DL.

Fines were $200, $150 and $50.

I know that speeding ticket is a moving violation, but DOES IT COME UNDER the category of CHARGE or OFFENCE ? Should I report it on DS-230 part II - Que 41 (above que in red) ?

What should I answer ? Yes or No.

Thanks for your replies in advance.

If it was just a speeding ticket, then, likely, you were not charged, arrested, or convicted of anything. You should have just been issued a citation and fined. Answer no!

That's my 2 cents

Good luck.
