I had a DUI in 1992 and I have not mentioned it to anyone. I personally wouldn't say a thing.
I agree. There is no way they will find out about that unless you tell them. I’m not advocating lying etc but in this particular instance it was a quarter of a century ago, nobody will ever find out and telling them would only harm your chances in this scenario.
You learned your lesson, kept your nose clean and I don’t see why you should keep paying for that all this time later. Let it go and just forget it now…
