For rehabilitation periods, overseas convictions are regarded as if the conviction took place in UK, regardless of when they get spent according to the national law of the country where the conviction took place.

So, for example, there are no spent periods in USA. If someone got a prison sentence in USA for upto six months, then that conviction will be spent 7 years from date of conviction according to UK law.

You got a fine, and fine gets spent 5 years from date of conviction. So, if your conviction occurred 5 year or more ago, then this conviction is now spent according to UK law, and you do not need to declare it.

Whatever position does USA law holds about this conviction is immaterial.
