Mississippi Board of Professional Engineers and Expungement

My question involves labor and employment law for the state of: Mississippi

I was convicted of a misdemeanor possession charge that was expunged about 4 years ago. When filling out the application for licensure through the Mississippi board of professional engineers there is a question that asks if I have ever been convicted of a misdemeanor. Can I answer “no” to this question or does this board have access to my seal records?

Thanks in advance,
bb
