Conviction from Court and ILR

Hello alI. I am in a dilemma and your little guidance will be very helpful.

My husband got 3 points from court for some tyre issues. This was 2011.
Our previous solicitors never declared these in past applications. We had four extensions on tier 4. Now his ILR is due. What to do now? Declare or not to declare? Nothing shows in SAR reports and PNC checks. And his CRB came clear 4 years back when he was applying for uber.
If we declare now, HO might open past applicants and we fall under deception.
What do you suggest.
Regards

This criminal conviction is immaterial for ILR as this is not a recordable offence i.e. an offence when you can not be sent to prison plus this is older than 3 years anyways.
The ILR form does ask if you have had any criminal convictions in the past. However, this conviction will have no impact on the ILR application.
Declaring this conviction is not needed as its spent already, DVLA would have reinstated the points too.
But note, if your husband plans to apply for Naturalisation in the future, he must declare this in the AN form. No criminal conviction is considered spent for Naturalisation and must be declared. It will not affect Naturalisation application either.

Sorry what is AN form?
While filling the application for ILR, in the criminal conviction section, i have makred No convictions.
If i write a small cover letter, will that be sufficient?
Also, what are the chances of the HO openeing past applications? As then the previous visas can be marked as taken by deception?
What is your opinion please?
Regards

AN means (Adult Naturalisation) Form.

No need to mention anything in ILR form and there is no need to attach covering letter.

No

You know there are Facebook groups, where people give free advice. But anyone can give advice there.
