I am not 100% sure on the English law and if it is different however there are certain bits of criteria for convictions being spent and unspent.
As far as I am aware, if you have went to court and had a fine then you have to declare it for 1 year and then its spent. If you got a fine with no court case, accepted a caution and a fine then this is immediately spent. You have no obligation to declare spent convictions nor should this come up on Basic security clearance. At least in Scotland it doesn't.
It gets more serious if you have done time behind bars.
My advice is to crack out google and start to do some research.

That's fawning in my book
I'm definitely all those things in your initial salvo though so I have no defense.. although an 'old' would have slotted in there nicely. You are a contractor now, your name calling has to be better than the permies.
Don't worry dear, I'm sure it'll not impact on your "forum personality" vote count......

Originally posted by BlueSharp View PostYou mention that you were fined as punishment was this done at the police station or did you have to attended court. As far as I know the police station fine is a caution and not a conviction.
I was convicted of possession of a class A drug where I was given a fine.

If you are obliged by your contract to tell them and dont you can be charged under section 2 of the fraud act IIRC and will be to the value of salary you have accrued from the moment of conviction which can become a hefty lump.
suggest you get yourself over to unlocks disclosure calculator
Unlock Criminal Record Disclosure Calculator
Then check to see if it will be filtered

If you fail SC and your boss gets nosey just tell him you had a Chinese girlfriend but she's gone to the US to study and you're still in touch with her.
No need to tell him about your "Class A" experience
