Criminal Background Questions in Your N-400 Interview πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

Parts 8-12 of N-400 ask about your moral character:

❓ Have you ever been arrested? ❓ Have you ever been convicted of a crime? ❓ Have you ever failed to file taxes?

Most important rule: ANSWER HONESTLY.

A past minor conviction does NOT automatically disqualify you. But lying about it can!

USCIS conducts a background check β€” they will know. Honesty is always right.
