Hello,

Apologies for going over old ground but I have 3 convictions from 1998-1999 for very small amounts of controlled substances (class a and b) I paid fines each time.

Since that time I have also visited the U.S.A. in 2005 due to my father being killed there. I did not fill out the landing card correctly. (I thought it would not include “spent” convictions that didn't involve jail time.)

Obviously the question on the on-line ETSA is far more black and white.

I would like to return to visit girlfriends family (she is american)

So looks as though I will have to apply for a VISA - but does anyone have an opinion to what extent the visit will also go against me - giving false information I'm guessing? (although unknowingly...)

And if attending VISA interview does anyone know what supporting documents would be needed / useful ?

Thanks,
 
GO
