Visa extension and minor traffic violation

Last year, I received 2 points and a 6000 fine for a traffic violation.
Will this affect my visa extension process for my Engineer/Specialist visa, which has a 3-year term? Should I mention it in the visa extension application form?
Is there a chance that I might only be granted a 1-year visa extension due to the traffic violation?

Any opinions would be appreciated.

  1. Visa renewal? Probably not.

    PR? You better provide a pretty good explanation in your personal statement.

  2. 2 points won’t stop your visa from getting renewed.

    Number of years seems to be a crap-shoot.

    You’ll want to get the points off your license before you apply for PR.

  3. Do not worry about it. I had traffic violations between each visa renewal and never had any problems renewing it.
