Hi,
I'm not a US citizen and I have a non-US DUI on my record.
Where I come from, DUI is not a misdemeanor, just a traffic violation.
After getting an offer from a top bank, should I disclose this under misdemeanors?
Does DUI actually make banks rescind their offers?

Is your offer for a US office?
LMAO. A DUI is a traffic violation? Do you mind if I ask where you're from?
Also, I doubt it. The only people that would have that kind of information is the Feds. So unless you had to go through a security check by them, unlikely.
If you're talking about a US bank, that is..
TechBanking, I'm from Israel. DUI is not a misdemeanor. It's a traffic offense (a severe one, but still traffic).
It seems weird that they won't retrieve my Israeli. charges. After all, how would they know I'm not a serious criminal? There must be some linkage between them and the feds
and yes, the offer is in NY
Sounds like you have the defense you need. If you got it in Israel and it's not a misdemeanor in Israel, why would you list it under misdemeanors in the US? Just make damned sure it's just a traffic violation.
Wow. Is the amount of DUI's high in Israel with it not being a severe offense? I feel like the amount of DUIs here is really high and it's a more serious charge.
DUI is not a misdemeanor in NJ too. It's a very serious offense in Israel, but technically, it's listed under driving record, not criminal charges. We don't have felony/misdemeanor crime classification in Israel. We have a different systems for crime classification.
Also, Do banks asks for disclosure of misdemeanors, or they specifically ask for DUIs?
They ask you to not list "minor traffic violations." I doubt they'll be able to find your Israeli charges.
more people have DUIs than you probably think - it really isn't a big deal.
