What past criminal activity must I disclose to the DOS?

You must disclose the following criminal activity to the Department of State as part of your license application:
1) On your license application, you will be asked if you have ever been convicted of a crime that is a misdemeanor or felony.
If you answer "Yes", you must submit a written explanation and provide a copy of the court records detailing the allegations of the offense and how the case was resolved. If you have received a Certificate of Relief from Disabilities, Certificate of Good Conduct or Executive Pardon, you must also submit a copy to the DOS.

2) You will also be asked if you have any criminal charges (misdemeanor or felonies) pending.
If you answer "Yes", you must submit a written explanation and provide a copy of the court records detailing the allegations of the offense.

3) Finally, you will be asked if you ever had a license revoked, suspended, or denied.
If you answer "Yes", you must provide all relevant documents, including the agency determination (if any).
