Your DUI will remain on your driving record for a number of years (10 years in California) and your arrest record will usually appear on any background check.

If I got a DUI in May 2005, should I report this on job applications even after I completed probation?

Answered by attorney Jason William Savela
DUI/DWI lawyer at The Savela Law Firm, P.C.
The best policy is to report it and explain what you learned going through that experience, how you have changed your behavior, etc. if you do not report it and they find it, you will be labeled as a liar and they will not hire you, give you admission to school, etc DUI's stay on your record forever - I fully expect them to see it. You may wish to get your own criminal record by requesting it from a background check company. Beware that some background check companies may not have all the information that others do.

It is possible that you can be charged at a later date and time for an incident that occurred earlier, however, as time goes on, the likelihood of such a scenario drops.
