cc application with arrest record

Misdemeanors shouldn't be a problem. You have to list the arrests and dates and get papers on their disposition I think. I listed arrest and didn't have any trouble.

Just being arrested will not matter. It is the convictions that matter. You can have an arrest for a felony and still get it depending on the disposition. If you were cleared of all charges, then you are good to go. Just go to your local police departmnet, or one in the jurisdiction where you were arrested and get your background check. Then take this paper and go to the DA's office and ask for the dosposition on it. They might charge you, they might not. Usually about $1.00 per page. Some places won't give you the disposition unless you first get the background check done.

I had misdemeanors, and even a bench warrant (that I didn't know about from a 2001 disturbing the peace) when I got mine. They are only looking for felonies and violent crimes. If you got busted with pot back in the day you are good.

But do know any many areas getting busted with pot, and having a gun on your person is an automatic felony.

I know of several people who had MIP's and didn't even list them. They still got there permits in a timely manner with no noticeable delays. As long as it didn't lead to a serious conviction, it shouldn't be a problem. Just a pain getting the paperwork in.
