Hi everyone.
I was conscripted in a certain year in Lithuania and they never told me about it, and instead decided I broke a 'law' and had to pay a silly 15 euro fine because I never responded. Now, I've lived in Ireland since a very young age (for over 15 years) and have no intention of serving there, mainly because I have a life here in Ireland and am studying in third level education. Because I am studying, I don't have to realistically worry about conscription because I can defer it (as I already have for this year, now that I know about it)
My question is, section 11.1 of the form asks if I have broken any laws in or outside of Ireland. I've never broken any laws before, anywhere other than this silly conscription notice which I paid a 15 euro fine for. Should I disclose this in the form, and if so, should I reasonably explain why this happened in a separate printed letter in more detail? Or am I safe to just ignore this?
I am wondering as well if anyone has been in a similar situation, as this money grabbing technique by Lithuania is extremely common for every living Lithuanian citizen in the age of 18-27 living abroad.
Edit: The reason I ask all these things is because I don't want to have to worry about my citizenship being rejected because of this unusual, petty ordeal Lithuania has.
