If my records are expunged or sealed, do I have to tell anyone I had them?

You do not have to tell employers, landlords or anyone else about expunged or sealed records. You can answer “No” on a job application if it asks you if you’ve ever been convicted of a crime. However, if the judge hasn’t issued an order expunging or sealing your record, you do have to report your criminal record to potential employers after an interview or conditional offer of employment.
