Hi There

Up until today, my biggest fear was being denied because of my criminal record, now I have even more worry, and I hope someone can help.

I was arrested at 17 for shoplifting. I have to say how informa this was, hence the reason i never dreamed it would be on my record.

I got arrested once when I was 17 3 and a half years ago. Since then I have travelled 4 times on the Visa Waver Programme.

When filling out the bording card, I always ticked no, on the criminal history convictions question.

Maybe i was nieve and stupid, but i genrally thought i was right to tick that at the time.

Could any one please tell me if they have made a similar mistake, and the outcome.

Many Thanks

Samantha,

It may indeed cause problems, but I am not sure about the procedures and waivers.... check out the waiver section and seek out kitkat1, she is the Queen of Waivers. Good luck, L.
