hello,

my husband has his CR1 interview in london on wednesday and we are worried about a drink driving offense on his police record, which was from 10 years ago.

we've been told by other forum members that we might need a waiver to go along for the interview.

i have no idea what this waiver is, if we need one or if we will be denied because of this on his record.

anyone have any advice???

desperate and anxious!

2 days til our interview!!!

This seems to be very vague...but this is what it says on the Embassy in London's website. Hopefully someone immigrating over from England will have a bit more info for you.

Good Luck

DD by itself should not require a waiver.
