Didn’t know I had a criminal record

[scylla]

Just an update, I just uploaded an extra letter in the uploads section along with my driving record explaining the mishap. There was no issue with receiving my visa or at the Canadian border. So I would say to anyone who has the same issue. Don’t sit on it or attempt to hide it, just be open and honest and for any minor incidents in your own country, they might not be seen as a problem for Canada.

Thanks for coming back and providing an update. This is helpful for others.

Agree with not attempting to hide but everyone should err on the side of caution when the word "conviction" appears. This could've easily gone sideways too. Congrats on your approval and welcome to Canada!
