Hi,
Ive got a caution for a battery in uk in 2018 ,
I will arrive to Canada in november with means 2 months before my caution will spent. The police certificate take a while to arrive and i dont think i will have it on time .
What should i say at the agent of immigration ?

Ive got a job offer (signed by me and the employer) and also a place to live .

Do you think i will be inadmissible for a visa and a working-permit ?

Thanks for your answer.

What will you be traveling on? I assume an eTA? Did you declare the arrest in your eTA application?

Hi ,
Yes ,i presume on eTA , my lawyer is in charge for my application and with my agreement we decided to declare the arrest.
Im thinking to give a explanation letter for the incident and a police certificate.
Have you applied and receive the eTA yet? If not, I would do that asap. Your application will likely be treated as non-standard because of your arrest history and the caution which means you may experience much longer processing times.

Yes ,we are planning to apply asap.

So Do you think a "simple caution" is something make inadmissible ?
I'm not an immigration lawyer and am not comfortable commenting on that.
