    Question about my background

    Hi, I am a new member and had a question. I am in the process of gathering all of the information to fill out applications to several agencies. I have only smoked pot about twice when i was 15. I have had several residences in the last 10 years. Mostly because id rent an apartment and then move when the lease was up and that sort of thing. Will this look bad? I have also had a few jobs. Most of the short-lived jobs were in 2000-2001. since then ive had only 2 jobs. One i stayed for a year and a half, and the other ive been at for 6 years. Will the short-lived jobs look bad? Also, probably the biggest thing is that I have lived in GA for 8 years now, and I held onto my Alabama drivers liscense and tags. Will that be an automatic DQ? I am 30 years old, I havent had a ticket in more than 3 years, and only 3 in my life. I've never been arrested or even had a run-in with the police. I have good credit and am a decent person. Just curious about what my chances my be. Thanks

    Return the plates and license, you dont need them. Having steady employment for 6 years will mitigate the short jobs. Moving maybe an issue the department is going to invest alot of money in you, they dont want you to pack up and leave after they pay all that money. Everything else looks ok on the surface.

    You've been in GA for eight years and got a ticket three years ago. Did the officer ask you if the address on your AL license was you correct address?

    He never asked any questions. Probably because i had both an Alabama liscense and tags. Thanks for the replies.
