So I had a license suspension in 2008 for failure to pay a ticket and I’m curious if I need to still put this on my applications when they ask if you have had license suspension since it was almost 20 years ago cause I always wonder if it will hurt my job chances
Application question, old license suspension.

Does the app specify a time period of the license suspension, or does it ask if you've had a license suspension at any time? You answer the question as it's asked. It won't impact your job prospects negatively. They just don't want any surprises on the background check.

Just pay attention to exactly how the question is worded. Don’t lie and leave it off but also don’t list it if it asks about the last 10 years or something. Being that old I doubt it will hurt you at this point, especially if it was before you had a CDL.

Gee, I had my license suspended in 1978, when I was 17. It didn't keep me from getting my New York Chauffer's License back then (that's what we had before there was a national CDL).
