Los Angeles, CA asked in Immigration Law for Hawaii

Q: Was out of status. Case dismissed, gr card based on marriage. Applying for citizenship. Need court docs w/application?

Application for citizenship requirement is to provide a court certified copy of the complete arrest record and disposition. Do I need to provide those documents if was in immigration proceedings? or it applies only for the courts other then immigration, like criminal and etc.
