Previous Immigration-related arrest in the USA

[NovaProspekt]

Hello guys, this forum seems to be very knowledgeable and helpful so I thought I'd ask here.

-I was arrested by USA border patrol in Jan. 2014 for sneaking into the USA illegally from my country of origin, Mexico. I was held overnight and deported to Mexico in the morning
-Later, I applied for a work visa to Canada and I fully disclosed this event to CIC. The visa was approved and everything went smoothly.
-I am again back in Mexico and I am preparing to apply to Express Entry (476 CRS points)
-I have USA background checks on myself from 2012 and 2015, and have not lived in that country since 2009. The first background check is clean and the second shows the arrest as follows:

CHARGE 1 ALIEN INADMISSIBILITY UNDER SECTION 212
CHARGE 2 ENTRY OF ALIEN AT IMPROPER TIME OR PLACE MISREP
CHARGE 3 ENTRY OF ALIEN AT IMPROPER TIME OR PLACE MISREP

-From what I understand, the 2012 background check is technically acceptable since it was issued after I lived in the USA in 2009
-When I submit my USA background checks to CIC for the EE application, can I submit the clean one from 2012 or must I submit the 2015 one?

Thanks in advance!

You need to submit the new one. CIC will find out anyway when they perform the background/security check.

Hope you declared that you were refused entry / removed in your application.

2015 one

You already disclosed it previously to Canada, so they will have record of it.

If you don't declare it now you would be in big trouble.

Hi NovaProspekt

But how did you do the background check? Did you do it yourself or you got a police clearance from the USA?

Is there a way , online, that one can use to do background checks on someone? Am asking because in some countries, the records are not really online, so how can one check in that scenario?

Thanks.

I did declare it on the work visa application and will do so again with the EE application. I just hoped that the clean background check would be sufficient since it is well...clean and IT WAS issued after I moved out of the USA

I will declare it I just wondered if I can make a statement about it and still use the clean background check. Anyone know the repercussions of this arrest? I was already approved a work visa after the fact, so that makes me hopeful. The thing is that for that work permit, no background check submission was needed.
