FPN is at least a 3points plus a £60 fine.Google what FPN is in google and your question will be answered.dineshcv wrote:Receiving a Fixed Penalty Notice (FPN) is not a criminal conviction and should therefore be disregarded. The exceptions to this will be where either there are criminal proceedings for failure to pay and the individual has an unspent conviction as a result of that or the individual has multiple FPNs, particularly over a short period of time, and should be considered in line with the general requirements of character, conduct and associations within paragraph 322(5) of the Rules.

This link defines the meaning of unspent conviction.
Although this is taken from UKBA's guide to naturalisation, (Sec 3.6; Page-8 ) my guess is that the definition of unspent conviction (especially with regards to FPN) remains same whether its for settlement or naturalisation? May be the experts will be able to throw some light...You must give details of all criminal convictions both within and outside the United Kingdom. These include road traffic offences. Fixed penalty notices will not normally be taken in to account, unless you have had more than one fixed penalty notice in the last 12 months. In that case you may wish to wait to make your application until you have no more than one fixed penalty notice in the 12 month period before applying.
Drink driving offences must be declared. If you have any endorsements on your driving licence you must provide the paper counterpart.
I have the same problem, so I wrote to UKBA and NACRO. I am quoting their replies. This includes my question as well. Just to tell you this traffic offence is not done by me, but my WIFE...uckocak wrote:Dear members,
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitec ... settlement
as per above, they are changing the rules again effective from 6 April 2011.
I entered UK with work permit at 10 April 2006, and changed to HSMP at July 2007.
5 years due by 10 April 2011.
Are they going to apply new rules to me or is there going to be a transitional period.
And do you know what "unspent convictions" mean? I have 3 points on my driving license due to traffic offence. Does this mean an unspent conviction?
Sorry for bothering you with my personal problems, however this may be a common problem for everyone.
kind regards, Utkan
My lawyer needed only the photocopy of driving license counter part which he intend to attach with the application and mention in the application, i got the same as you 3 points on speeding and a fixed penalty.rajivilr wrote:Hi All,
I met my solicitor yesterday personally and want to bring this to attention of all, I have 3 points on my licence for speeding, she asked me to mention and also to prove that it was just an FPN they need proof of payment made and the letter. I got this like 3 years or ago and dont have anything in records now with me. Is there any other way we can prove it was just a FPN.

The best solution will be to sent it to Nacro. This is the only agency that can guide you about the conviction etc. I have sent the scanned copy of the counterpart to the concerned person and have received the above mentioned reply(see my post).rajivilr wrote:Hi Salina,
I dont know why but my solicitor asked me to get the letter issued by police and my driving licence counterpart both and I dont know where i have the letter of FPN but i am sure i did not challenge and just accepted it, she even asked me to get a proof of payment and i dont have all of those except the counter part mentioning whatever needs to be in there really. I told her i will look for it over the weekend but I am pretty sure I wouldnt find the letter from met police but atleast i will try and dig my bank statements for that time and provide what i can get but its a hard job.
