While filling out the 129F form I had a question about this part:
QUOTE
Part C
2. Have you ever been convicted by a court of law (civil or criminal) or court martialed by a military tribunal for any of the
following crimes:
[a] Domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse and neglect, dating violence, elder abuse or stalking. (Please refer to page 3 of
the instructions for the full definition of the term "domestic violence.)
Homicide, murder, manslaughter, rape, abusive sexual contact, sexual exploitation, incest, torture, trafficking, peonage,
holding hostage, involuntary servitude, slave trade, kidnapping, abduction, unlawful criminal restraint, false imprisonment or
an attempt to commit any of these crimes, or

Three or more convictions for crimes relating to a controlled substance or alcohol not arising from a single act.
(Checkbox) [Yes] [No]

Answering this question is required even if your records were sealed or otherwise cleared or if anyone, including a judge, law
enforcement officer, or attorney, told you that you no longer have a record. Using a separate sheet(s) of paper, attach information
relating to the conviction(s), such as crime involved, date of conviction and sentence.
I checked NO. I did have two misdemeanor convictions (over 20 years ago) "relating to a controlled substance or alcohol not arising from a single act" but not THREE OR MORE.

Am I interpreting the question and answering correctly? Also, if I forgot one (that was a long time ago) and they find it, will I be prosecuted/denied for answering incorrectly?

Thanks!

And since I checked NO, I don't have to "attach information relating to the conviction(s), such as crime involved, date of conviction and sentence" right?
