So about four years ago I received a ticket for a minor in consumption. I had it expunged before the first time I applied (in 2010) but decided to disclose the info on that application cycle because I wasn't sure it was completely off my record. Since then I have gone through multiple background checks for my job, multiple volunteer positions, as well as doing one myself and nothing has come up. So I am pretty confident it is off my record. As such, I stated I did not receive an misdemeanor on all of the applications (as one of the exemptions from disclosing that info is that it is expunged).
Now secondaries are asking the same question, stating they require background checks "where all past court decisions will be listed". They even explicitly stated to include anything "dismissed or expunged."
So my question is two part:
1. Is it okay to say no since I know it is off my record and any background check should reveal nothing?
2. If I decide to say yes, would it be detrimental to my application since I replied no on the main application?
If anyone has had any experience with this or has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
