Can a CA Hazmat endorsement be obtain with a income tax fraud conviction in 2007?

 

can't say for sure, but my spidey sense tells me that the hazmat/felony restriction mostly applies to violent or terrorist type stuff, kidnapping, treason, murder, so on.
unless the tax fraud was something about not reporting sales of biochem weapons to Bin Laden :/
only one real way to find out, give it a try

 

Tax fraud conviction? Oh look Wesley Snipes wants to drive the big rigs. Tax fraud ranks right up there with being the worst kind of thief in my opinion. Go back to Roy Rogers and keep the fries cooking.

 

Y'know - a 45 second search on the internet can answer that question:
