I HAVE OBTAINED A CANADIAN PARDON (RECORD SUSPENSION). DO I STILL NEED A US ENTRY WAIVER?It depends. If you have never tried to enter the US before, and you have now obtained a pardon, you could probably cross the border without any problems. But if you did try to enter the US before, then CBP will have you in their own American system as having a criminal record. Your Canadian pardon will not be recognized by US Customs. Even if you are not in their computer system, you might still show up in CPIC if you only just recently obtained your pardon. The only sure way to cross into the US trouble-free is with a US Entry Waiver.

WHAT IF I’M JUST PASSING THROUGH THE US, TAKING A CONNECTING FLIGHT ON MY WAY SOMEWHERE ELSE?Unfortunately, you will need to clear US Customs to get on a plane taking off from American soil. Even if the States is not your final destination, you will be asked all the same questions, and if the agent does a scan that reveals your criminal record, you could be, at the very least, prevented from getting on that plane. At most, you could be arrested, detained, and have your possessions seized.

WHO ISSUES MY US ENTRY WAIVER?The waiver is issued by the US Department of Homeland Security once your application has been approved and fees paid.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE THE GOVERNMENT TO GRANT MY PARDON?Once your application has been received by the Canadian government for independent review, it can take months to receive an answer because of the current backlog. The best way to ensure that the government processes your application quickly is to do your due diligence beforehand and make sure your application is 100% complete and accurate; that will safeguard against lengthy delays or even a dismissal of your application due to incomplete information.

I NEED TO TRAVEL TO THE US SOON. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO GET A WAIVER?Unfortunately, processing a US Entry Waiver can take up to 18 months. That is because applications must meet exacting standards for accuracy and precision, and contain legal information that must be obtained from outside agencies such as law courts and RCMP, otherwise they will be summarily denied; secondly, you must submit your completed application to CBP officials at a US port of entry for their independent review, which can take months.
