Hello,

I am applying for my British nationality. Could you please advice whether to declare education penalty notice (paid within the stipulated time) under convictions and other penalties or not?

Details of education penalty notice:
- Education penalty notice received (from county council court officer) after taking child out of school on un authorised holidays (1 day :cry: ).

Letter after paying the penalty:

I am writing to acknowledge the receipt of your payment £60 in respect of penalty notice no xxxxxx. You have paid the fine within the set time limits and therefore you will not be prosecuted for the offence committed during the period set out in the notice.
+++++++++

Your support is highly appreciated.

Many thanks
Rey

“A Fixed Penalty Notice is an alternative to prosecution, which does not require an appearance in court. Payment of a Fixed Penalty Notice enables parents/carers discharge what is potentially the liability for a criminal conviction.”

Once you pay the fine, you can not be prosecuted under the Education Act 1996. Only prosecution can lead to a criminal conviction.

Declare the FPN in the “additional notes” but only one FPN will have no impact on your application.
