If you want to become a NYPD police officer the first thing you must do is get your Certificates of Disposition to review any arrests or summonses you may have. You should also get your Lifetime Abstract from New York State Department of Motor Vehicles before completing your Applicant Processing forms.

You MUST know the facts about any arrests, moving violations or summonses you may have. If you “guess” and submit inaccurate information, you WILL receive a Notice of Proposed Disqualification (NOPD) stating that you are disqualified for “Omission of Pertinent Facts.” Remember, the NYPD or other hiring agency, such as the NYC Department of Correction or FDNY have access to all of this information so when you submit an incomplete and/or inaccurate form they will compare it to their computer printouts and disqualify you.
