Is it true that if you have a criminal conviction you can't travel to the USA?
Answer:
its not true that you cant travel to the usa! if you have any convictions and wish to travel to the usa you must contact the embassy in london and find out if you require a visa! my fiancee got caught for drink driving (it was the morning after the night before!!) and was told he needed a visa! we went to the embassy and he was interviewed and issued with a visa to allow access into the usa
check out their website for more info!
Don't let it bother you, we'll take anyone.
I sure hope it is true!
However, I suspect it is only true of certain crimes.
We have our own criminals, we don't want more, and the fact is that recidivism is rampant, everywhere.
just do like everyone else and climb over through or under the fence
It is not true. However, you probably will have some explaining to do before you can get a visa, and you might be bared entirely if the crime qualifies as a felony in a US jurisdiction.
depends how serious the crime. any drug crime then no.
any other misdemeanours then you need to contact the embassy for a visa
YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED IN
If it is we got alot of people to get rid of !!!
I think it really depends on the crime. I know they are strict with serious drug convictions but am unsure how they stand on other convictions.
Yes, unless you get a pardon. My friend just went to florida and they wouldn't let him cross the border because he had a criminal record from 20 years ago and he never got a pardon.
i dont know, but if it is true, i am sure it only applies to the ones who try to come in the proper fashion. why they would bother, i dont know for we have open borders now anyway.
You got guns,oil or money, cmon in. You got a record, pay that dude, but please enter. No guns oil or money, no entry.
No its not true illegals come back again and again,6 felonies and they get let go,Americans cannot be predudice or politically incorrect.Our law cannot even ask if they are illegal .Its against our rights ,we might be racist,meanwhile illegals are sueing this country blind and taking our rights as tax paying citizens.You asked I told you,now what is your next question?
You will need to apply for a visa before you leave. You will be taking a big risk if you don't, and try to get in on the visa waiver scheme (is that still applicable?).
Why the hell would you want to go to that Godforsaken country, anyway? It's full of nutters with guns.
I don't think that the US will give you a visa if you have a criminal conviction. Pity we don't follow their example.
Every ones welcome, aslong as youre not a hippie flag burner!
It is only true if your are listed in the USA as having been convicted
and have not been taken off the list. You can find out through the
American Embassy and anyone planning under such circumstances
should consult, if not the Embassy , an American Consul General
who has easy access to these files.
Are you British? I've heard that if you have a criminal record and a British pasport you need a visa (whereas you normally wouldn't need one).
I guess you could contact their embassy and they may be able to give u more info
Depending on the type of crime you were convicted of, you could be denied entry, and if denied, go through Mexico, everyone else does.
Yes its true so come to the UK we take everyone.
If you have a criminal record, you will not get a visa to visit the States.
But what the hell, come here to the UK instead! We welome criminals, teach them how to get the most out of State handouts, set them up in Council houses, and we don't deport them if they kill, rape, rob, whatever.
