Full disclosure

Yo mates,

applying tomorrow for British Nationality - to prove myself will get drunk tonight on cheap lager while watching Premiertulip game, then buy a kebab or something.

The burning question now is this - the application asks for any convictions including traffic offences, they also ask if I was involved in warcrimes of any kind, but this is a moot point, so, the guidance says fixed penalties (speeding and parking) need not to be reported, but call center people say best to put it anyway. Should I?

Its a moo point. Like a cows opinion, who cares!

Calm dahn, calm dahn... no need to bother if that's what it says in the notes. Don't confuse public sector workers with any more info than strictly necessary.

If it says on the form include traffic offences then do so. The idiot on the helpdesk probably has no clue how the process works and give out duff info.

The point of most of these forms is to check that you are telling th truth anyway. They are likely to check out everything they have asked you and if they find out you have been lying it will be much worst than fessing up to something everybody in the UK has done anyway. (I wouldn't be surprised if you need to proove you have been done for a speeding offence to get British nationality!!!)

The guideline notes for that question say EXCLUSING fixed penalty notices for speeding and parking - the two I have, thankfully over 3 years old now.

I am inclined to add them on additional piece of paper with reference to printed out notes page just to be sure - I don't think DVLA that they may check will actually have a record of whether it was fixed penalty notice or not.
