Community Resolution Order - Please Help

In February 2010 , I filled my car at a petrol station and could not pay. I left my details with the station and promised to pay. My life was chaotic at that time I ended up with the police visiting my place and I explained my situation. I signed a Community Resolution Order (CRO) and for the next 2 years was jobless. My life is back on track - 2011 was assigned refugee status , and in 2016 got my ILR. I am now about to apply for citizenship ,so checked police records. ACPO - no issues. Local police for the previous are ( I no longer live in the area) came back with the CRO.

I am torn between declaring this and not ...can anyone help with the options I have. How far does the Home Office go with their checks...local police or just ACPO???

Please be kind , I hate myself already for what I did.

Just declare it regardless of whether you are required or not to be on the safe side. Its only minor & I am sure will not have adverse affect on the outcome of your application.

Thanks for feedback , I will take it on board. Just concerned they seem to use anything now to deny people citizenship
