Client’s DUI could keep him out of Canada.

According to an article in Travel Weekly, a client with a DUI conviction from about 10 years ago may have trouble being admitted into Canada at the airport. The Canadian federal government considers DUI to be a serious criminal offense and can deny entry to individuals with such convictions. However, there is a possibility that the client could still be admitted if the Canadian immigration officer deems them rehabilitated. Factors such as the severity of the offense and the amount of time that has passed since the conviction can influence this decision. The article advises the client to come prepared with necessary paperwork and suggests seeking assistance from a Canadian immigration law firm. If the client is denied entry, they will not be allowed to leave the airport and will be flown back home by their airline. [Extracted from the article]
