    OK, I applied to Swift, and the only thing holding me up is they want the dates I paid for my minor speeding tickets.

    I have the dates from my DMV record, but that's not good enough. They say they want the exact dates of conviction/day the ticket was paid for.

    Did anyone else have to do this? I have the date of the ticket on my DMV record, why would they want the dates I paid the ticket?

    Thanks for any help.

    How recent were these tickets? I never heard of anyone wanting exact dates.

    Do you have any other applications in? That sounds to me like they are looking for a reason to not hire you.

    The tickets were in 2008 and 2010.

    Yeah, I was starting to think the same thing. Kinda sucks they wouldn't just tell a person that.

    Theyre doing you a favor, actually.

    Pretty sure you have filled out other apps.. Swift should be with your bottom 3 choices..
    Good luck.

    When you pay your ticket is the admission of guilt/conviction. So what's on your MVR is the date they were paid unless you dragged it on past your court date.

    They don't put the day you received the ticket on your MVR because you are still innocent until court or you pay it.
