Driving on Suspended Driver's License in Michigan

[toobrown]

So I was caught driving on a suspended DL in Michigan back in August 2003. The cop arrested me, took me to the police station, finger printed me and then gave me an option to get bail for $120. I paid that and came out. I was then given a court date and pleaded not-guilty. The judge asked me to pay fine and prohibition for 6 month. I was able to re-instate my DL after 6 months.

 

Question: When the time comes to file for I-485, do I need to let my lawyer know about this? I have had no issues in the past, while visa stamping in Canada or at the POE.

 

Thanks

USCIS can see all these things, no matter how far back. So, yes, it has to be declared.

Yes, absolutely the attorney has to be informed.

Let him know right now and do not blindside him at the last minute. If you forget to mention the arrest and they find out the AOS will be in great danger.
