submitting my paper work for nclex few questions

Published

Tomorrow I am going to attempt and get all my paper work in order so i can submit it to my school and get the paper work sent out to where it has to go, I have some questions for those of you who have already done this. On my paper I have to get record of convictions so i have to go to the court tomorrow and ask for it does any one here know how much they are going to charge me? i have 2 cases that have been dismissed will i have to show that?, i also have to get proof of payment for any traffic ticket i got that was over 300$ i dont know how im going to find all that information out tho it says no DMV print outs so how do i go about doing that ? any help will be greatly appreciated

Cases dismissed are not convictions, so you don't need to mention them. If you have other convictions, that's a different matter.

Your bank can give you a copy of the check you used to pay your fine. You can get a stmt from the DMV that indicates you have no outstanding fines due.

You would have had to tell your school all that when you applied. What did you do then?

Well when i first signed up to school i chose not to tell them , anyhow i just got back from the court house and both of my dismissed cases didint even show up on their computer program at the court now the dilemma im having is on the paper work for the nursing board it says to submit an explanation if you have cases that have been dismissed or that happened a long time ago, why would i tell them that should i e honest and just tell them what happened ? the first time i got in trouble was in 08 thats 7 years ago and California has the 7 year law which after 7 years i dont have to tell any one anything so why would i tell the boards if the case got dismissed, the second one was in 2013 got an attorney ( petty theft 30$) and got the case dismissed after i took some classes. i just dont know what to do since they are both none convictions why should i even disclose this ? i also went to do the live scan will they see that once they get the paper work from FBI and DOJ ? because i was thinking what if i dont tell them since the cases where dismissed but then it shows up when they get the live scan results im really leaning towards just telling them what happened and how the cases where dismissed/ thrown out
