Hi I have always wanted to go to America and I have a family holiday booked in may 2026, I have one previous conviction for stalking in June 2020, because of this when I done my esta visa form recently I put no on the do you have any criminal convictions question. My ESTA visa got approved in about 1 hour and it looks all good.

However my brother is concerned that they will still find out about my record and deny me entry is there still a good chance for them to find out about my record by looking on the internet about me for example or am I very likely to get through if I act normal at the immigration desk when flying. Any advice would be appreciated as I also know they take fingerprints at the immigration desk.
