My boyfriend and i are thinking of moving from the uk to the usa. however my boyfriend has a criminal record?
Answer:
If you go the K-1 fiance path, he will be asked to supply a police certificate and any court records for his interview. Crimes of moral terpitude can mean a denial of the visa initially depending on the certain factors - the type of criminal offense, how many convictions and how long ago etc. You can read more on those ineligible for a visa in the first link. Having a conviction does not mean he will not be granted a visa but it can make the process much longer as you have to wait for a waiver to be approved. There is also no guarantee of waiver approval.
Try the south entrance
It probibly will.
My mate wanted to to go to florida to work with a family friend ,& he was refused.
He had a GBH RECORD.
It all depends what he was convicted for and how long ago.
It may, especially if it is a drug related offense. But check with the local consulate to be sure.
Yea, stay there
He ought to be welcomed, we have a criminal as a president.
You have no Chance, sorry.
We have plenty of criminals here already. You should come and leave him there. Sounds harsh but why should we let more criminal work and live here when we have far to many criminals looking for work who are U.S. citizens.
Honestly, why would the US want a convicted felon coming over? We have enough already.
But, it most likely depends on what type of offense it was. If it was a violent crime, I don't think so. If it was something like embezzlement or a "white collar" crime, maybe. Check on the US Immigration and Naturalization website.
Move to the European Continent. It is a mistake to move to a criminal Enterprise if you can avoid it.
Very low.
Certainly it will...but does he have to tell them?
it really depends on why he has a criminal record, and how long ago the offence was. i'm sorry to say that yes, it will probably affect your chances of getting in. best thing u can do is look up on the internet how to go about getting a visa / work permit. it should give u a list of rules & regulations on there. u would both stand a better chance of getting in if u have good qualifications in things such as teaching or nursing - jobs that they have a shortage of people for.
Just break up with him and Get new boy friend to live in USA
if HE HAS A CRIMINAL RECORD IT WILL BE BETTER TO STAY AWAY OF USA...HERE THEY WILL SEND HIM TO JAIL PRETTY FAST. CRIMINALS STAY AWAY !!!
If it's a non violent, non drug misdemeanour,way in the past, probably won't matter. Drug misdemeanour, still possible but difficult. A felony of any type, not going to happen. Have you considered Canada?
This seemingly harmless, and apparently simple question opens a veritable 'Pandora's' can of worms.
It all hinges on the record, for example, anything involving Boy George is pretty much a no-no from the get-go. By counterpoint, a few years ago Sid Vicious would have plonked you right in the 'Wait here for the next flight to Gitmo' queue, but since Ole Blue Eyes croaked out on 'My Way' for the final finale, Sid's fortunes have taken a rather unexpected , and lucrative, reversal, posthumously, of course. So if your b/f is worried about that staircase entry by Sid on a dvd or video, just relax and enjoy the ride.
Personally I would be more concerned about the way things ended up for Sid and Nancy, which might portend rather too accurately the sort of things that can occur to Brit babes in the hoods in 'The land of the Brave'.
Good luck.
Oh, he'll blend right in. You don't need bother with all that paperwork, just travel to Mexico and inquire there. Once in the United States, no employers really check your legal status. Osama Bin Laden could be working for a fortune five-hundred corporation. Politicians want to build a wall just to make it LOOK like they are against ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. Come right in! You even speak English, what are you worried about.
There is a reasonable chance the UK has lost the criminal record , we in the UK seem to be great at finding the world's criminals and losing the records.
yes of course it will efect with a criminal record no chance!its hard to get visa for here... we r full anyway.
Of course it will. Why would any country want to take on a convicted criminal. They've got enough of their own.
It would depend on what type of crime he was convicted for. Certain crimes can exclude a person ever from entering the US
yes and it will
Unlike this stupid country the USA DO stick by the rules, so no , u can go , he'll have to stay, and thats a fact, so don't waste money on trying to get visas. Sorry, but at least one country in the world adheres to its policies unlike this stupid country. and yes I am in the UK, and God bless America
definately not. sorry but that's how it is.
I believe his criminal record strips him of any chance of emigrating to the US legally.
