I'm hoping someone can answer this as i'm hoping to go travelling next year.
My understanding is you can get into the US still if you have a criminal conviction. people have been known to lie on the waiver forms and nothing as been done. i know your taking a risk but i know going through the propper channels wouldnt work in my case so its worth that risk...
If you flying into the US from another country like tokyo, i take it you will need to get a visa even being a british citizen or do you qualify still under the waiver program ? whats the scenario behind getting a visa in the US ? would they do full criminal checks on you ? or would it just be best to fly straight to the US from UK ? This would mean flying to NY which ive read is tough on security. Obviously this will all depend which way i start my world travel.
I've never been abroad before so i dont know the ins and outs of visa's and what they can find out about you.
What about countries such as china and australia aswell.. I've heard australia is tight on security and you require a visa to enter. has anyone bent the truth or lied about convictions when entering either of these countries.?
