Hi guys,
I feel so stupid to this but last week, me and my friends partied and i tried to drop off my friend home and was pulled over by cops and changed with drink and drive. While i was caught i was not driving crazily or anything. Now they asked me to give finger prints on a particular date and attend the court on another date which is 2 months away.
My question is: i was planning to renew my travel visa there is a question: Committed, been arrested or charged with any criminal offence in any country? --- Should i say no or yes as my case is not convicted yet.
Will the information from cops reach the immigration from last week to date ?? if not can i say no and apply through post ??
I am scared..i am in deep shit..I m currently on Workpermit till end of 2010..i also applied for PR under Canadian Experienced class and waiting for my medicals ?? will this spoil up too ??
I need some support from you guys as i can´t reveal this to my friends..i am really ashamed of my self for doing this....
Can´t afford to live every day with the guilt..
Please some one help me and guide me what to do...I´ll be indebted to for the rest of my life..
Any support is appreciated..
thanks,
Shakthi

(in reply to: Drunken driving -over 80 mg- charged) Committed, been arrested or charged with any criminal offence in any country? ---
have you been arrested - yes. have you been charged - yes. so, how do you think you can answer no and not commit misrepresentation while you are at it. Postmark roulette is a foolish game to play.
The only way the charge will not affect your PR is if you are found not guilty.
Sorry, but you messed up big time.

(in reply to: Drunken driving -over 80 mg- charged) Google the Canadian Criminal Code there is a section that no conviction will be registered based on certain criteria. I think CCC 253 (5) You need to seek alternative treatment because.....

(in reply to: Drunken driving -over 80 mg- charged) DUI is an offence in Canada. You have to answer yes, you have been charged and arrested.
There is a 99% chances that your visa will be rejected now and if you don´t tell the truth there is a 99% chances that you will be charge for misrepresentation. Either way you´re toast.
And yes, it will affect your application for PR. I am not sure to what extend and it will affect it either way.
This is not a pretty thing to hear but......
If it happened in the US, it is already at the CBSA database.
Cheers,
Bill

(in reply to: Drunken driving -over 80 mg- charged) what advice do you want?
DUI is a serious offense in Canada. I was charged for driving without insurance when my application was in procces for PR and I asked the cops if its gonnabe on my criminal record, they said no, but if it was DUI thats a criminal record.
