I'm going to the US, (Kansas City airport), I have a machine readable passport. As I understand it, if I have ever been arrested AND / OR received convictions, I am not eligable for the visa waiver program, and must apply for a visa. This means taking a copy of my record to the US embassy in London, then waiting anything upto 16 weeks.
I can't wait that long.
So, does anyone know, if I don't declare my convictions, is there any way that the immigration people at the airport will be able to bring up my convictions on the screen? I've been arrested 3 times, and I received 2 cautions and a fine. This was over 6 years ago.
When I touch down in KC, and they check my passport, will it show up on some screen that I have lied? Or will I be ok?
No spam posts please.... I need to know a definate answer.
