Once you answer these questions then the investigator who reviews the questionaire will notify security at the NPP and they will discuss your eligibility and whether or not to DENY you UAA. Please bear in mind that a denial will usually ban you from UAA for at least 5 years.
I am sure that other good folks on this site will correct me if I have said anything wrong here so please wait for some of their replies before you make a decision.
Good luck with your endeavors.
