Zipp0 1 #1 January 15, 2008 So.... I had a DUI about 16 years ago. No bad behavior that landed me in court before or after that date. It appears that after 10 years you are considered 'rehabilitated' and will havee no issues entering Canada. Is this right, or do you STILL have to fill out a shitload of paperwork? http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/5312E3.asp That link makes it seem like after 10 years of good behavior, you are free and clear, but who wants to drive for 7 hours and get turned around? -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Andrewwhyte 1 #2 January 15, 2008 This is not going to be a problem. QuoteIf the offence is one that would, in Canada, be prosecuted summarily and if you were convicted for two (2) or more such offences, that period is at least five (5) years after the sentences imposed were served or to be served. In Canada DUI can be a summary offense (similar to a misdemeanor) or an indictable offense (similar to a felony). If you have one only DUI with no other charges it will almost certainly be treated as if it is the former. Note the five year thing is for two or more such offences; in other words if you only have had one you were never inadmissible. They wont say that out loud so as to not be pinned down, but that is what it means. In General only the US is crazy about keeping out anyone who ever committed a crime.
