Waiver – full service
It is possible under certain conditions to travel to the United States, for business or pleasure even if you have a criminal record. It is not necessary to have received a record suspension to enter the United States. It is the U.S. Department of Homeland Security that has the authority to accept or refuse a request, depending on whether your criminal past is considered a high risk or if you have already been denied entry. Just as with the service offered for pardons, we evaluate your eligibility for free and if you are eligible, we can assist you in the waiver application process.
If you wish to obtain a record suspension in Canada (also called a Pardon), we offer a dedicated service. Click this link to learn more.
