You are required to note all arrests or convictions on Form N-400, as well as provide an arrest report &/or court disposition. Since USCIS takes your fingerprints, they will have your entire rap sheet. If you lie or omit key information, even if it has been over 5 years, your case could be denied. If you are in doubt of your eligibility due to a criminal history, please consult with an immigration attorney before filing your case.
