(Disclaimer: This answer applies to Massachusetts and is probably slightly different depending on the state you live in, such as what age you're considered a juvenile, etc.) If you are a juvenile (in MA, age 7 until the day you turn 17, NOT 18) and you have a court hearing in which you are found guilty, you are adjudicated, not convicted. So your answer to the question "were you ever convicted of a crime?" if you were under 17, should be no. As I understand it, If you are considered a Juvenile Delinquent from your hearing, your records are not open to the public until you are 18. If you are a Youthful Offender (considered more dangerous), your records are open to the public any time. Basically, if you apply for a job and they run a background (CORI) check on you, anything you did at any age (except for the Juvenile Delinquent under 18) will be there, and will be there unless you seal your record, which can be done with an attorney and you have to wait 3 years in order to do it. whatever you did before 18 is totally off your record, there is no need to inform them of this. I'm not totally sure, but I think they are removed from your record when you turn 18. So, I don't think you have to list them. No you do not. They do not have the right to ask you if you are a minor. Its a good idea to tell them about anything that would show up in a background check, but if it was before you were 18 it wont show up. Unless it was really, really bad.
