Really, 18-21 college years, not getting overly drunk at a party? That's pretty normal for the population at large. Getting DUI's on the other hand is something else. That's getting into an automobile after said party... and getting caught. By abuse, I don't mean binge drinking for 4 years...

I've read up on this matter now. Expungement is expungement. It's what to know about expungement was the key. I Q&A'd this and found out my confusion; I was able to distinguish, with help, what expungement is and what it IS NOT. Expungement, as it turns out, doesn't close anything for the FAA to...

You are awesome my friend! I'm on it! In it to win it... hopefully. I pray to God that I can fly some day SOON :)

@AggieMike88 Thank you for your thoughtful and thorough comment. It's true, I was confused, very much. But after asking and thankfully getting replies I learned some valuable key words, like "HIMS doctor" and "evaluation with HIMS". These are useful insights and what I was fishing for. As a...

Ah, I'm deluded. Nice to know. I'm only pointing out the legalities of what an expungement or expunction qualifies, not what it has to do with anything federal like the FAA. That's all. I'm here because I don't know the laws and/or regulations of the FAA. So if I'm asked on the questionnaire, I...

I was searching what I needed and didn't know the proper jargon to use or how to ask the question. I think this is EXACTLY the advise I was looking for. Thank you so much for putting the time and the effort in spelling it out for me. I am printing this as I speak.

I take that back. I have not done this. I did something similar? I went to a 3rd parth and they sent for my DoJ records. Is this the same thing?

Yes. I've done that. Thanks for the chiming in! That's what I did to get me started in investigating myself and what prompted me to ask for expungement; and I got granted those expungements. I guess it doesn't matter though it seems ("in the interest of justice"). I got my DMV from 2011 still in...

Amen! Pre-existing condition. Null candidate and disqualified. No insurance for you. That's why I say, "Nope", to any and all questions a doctor asks me, "Have you ever had or done ...?" It stays in your doctor's visit jacket. Most, and I mean upper 95% or more, of us as 18-21 have abused...

The only thing I see in my case on this exerpt, would be "misrepresentation". What an expungement is as explained and defined to me, is "the legal right to answer no to the charges against me." Example DUI: DUI expunged. "Have you a prior DUI?", "No". That's the legality of the expungement. But...

I just got a comment from someone mentioning that I should talk to Dr Bruce. Is this you? The comment: /* Read back in the thread and contact either Doc Bruce or another HIMS rated AME, and do NOT apply for a medical without speaking to a professional who deals with FAA substance abuse cases...

Thanks for your information. I really appreciate it! Yeah, I have the documents stamped and approved, all of my DUI's have been expunged. CA resident. I'd load them to show you, but what's the point in that, I'm here for Q&A, and I'm being honest. It would only hurt me to lie to myself right...

I've had 3 DUI's. 1996, 1998, 1999. Nothing since. They are all expunged. Still on DMV. No alcohol problems since. 1996 was a noise report 0.20 BAC, 1998 accident related 0.15 BAC, 1999 0.14 BAC. I really don't even drink, not on weekends, not on a regular basis, not really much any more at all...
