Hi Everyone!! im looking into applying for my citizenship soon, and I hear that you have to have a certain type of person as like a reference?, like an engineer, a doctor etc.... And hey have to be a friend!!. I think it's the "identity declaration" Me and my partner have lots of Australian friends but non of them have jobs on the approved list!!. Just wondering what has other people done if they have experienced this problem??

Oh no!, no jail time!. I was drunk and just did something silly, no violence of fighting or anything like that. I was just handed a $100 fine and told to leave the area for 24hours ( I think it's a barring notice!!?? ) and I did I went straight home, and paid the fine when it arrived in the post, and never heard any more about it until yesterday.

Thank you for your reply!!... I probably am over thinking this, but I'm afraid, because it will come down the the case officer on the day!!.

Thanks very much for your response!!. It's hard not too worry, I've worked very hard over here in Perth for the past 4 years and I'd be heart broken if it ended over me doing something very stupid, it's the 1st and last time anything like this every happened to me. Oh I know, I don't mean to sound like its nothing, it's very serious!!, it's just i never thought it would have come again!!. I thought to have a conviction you'd have to be in court or arrested!!. Good idea I'll contact my agent and see if I should get a few references and an apology letter.

Oh and yes I will be declaring it now!!, the paper work will changed!!

Oh sorry!!.... No it's not smart answer. I mean I was fined in 2013, and paid the fine, no courts or police station or anything!, so I didn't think I was convicted of anything, just like a speeding fine etc Yano!!. i didn't know I had a conviction until I got my check back yesterday!.... is this enough for my visa to be denied or is it more serious matter like, drugs, robbery, fraud etc?.

Hay everybody, im looking for some advice. Im just about to lodge my 186 visa and all paperwork done and approved by visa agent. Only my AFP check came back with a notice of "disorderly behaviour" ( no frightening or anything just being drunk and silly) and I was fined $100 back in 2013. It is now 2016. It was nothing major, I was drunk and asked to move along by the police in Perth and I did so. I was just fined $100 and I knew nothing about the conviction until yesterday when I recieved my police check. has this happened to anyone or know of anyone this has happened too, and was refused, or had the visa granted!!? my agent says it should be fine but I just want to hear from other people's experiences!!?? please no smart answers, I'm really worried and I know it was stupid!!!
