I have come to Canada to stay with my bf who is a citizen. I am from the US. My border crossing stamp will have me out of here april 1st so i am applying to stay in the country on the visitors visa. One of the questions is have you ever been convicted of a crime in any country. 22 years ago ( I am now 45) a bunch of friends and I got in trouble stealing flip flops at kmart. We all got charged with misdemeanors and were given 3 months probation ,but it is on my "record" Is this something that i should disclose in that section of my application? or has been so long that it doesn't matter? And could it possibly keep me from getting my visa?
thanks!
thanks!
