Acro came back with a record on it.

Good evening.

Today I received my ACRO however there was a entry on it.
Use disorderly or threatening /abusive / insulting words likely to cause harassment alarm or distress.
This happened on 30/06/2007.

I have asked ACRO if this will be removed on the 30/06/2019 due to the 12 year step down or if it will be removed 27/07/2019 which is 12 years after the court date.

I currently live in Canada and have a ETA.

Do you think this will make me inadmissible?

I think i should be ok, anyone with any law experience could you please help.

Re: Acro came back with a record on it.

It will still show as "no live trace" even if it is stepped down in the UK - and Canada will require an explanation of what it's about - i.e. court document / fine payment or what ever was done.https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration...y/reasons.html

Did you declare it when you applied for the eTA? Did you check the box Yes for the question "have you ever been arrested / charged with or convicted of any criminal offense in any country?" https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/ir...ta/english.pdf

As more than 10 years has passed then you would very likely have been deemed rehabilitated - presuming you weren't imprisoned or similar, however, if you didn't declare it when you applied for the eTA (and/or whatever visa you are in Canada under, if you are here other than as a visitor - or when you entered Canada) that could be an issue.. misrepresentation could come back to bite you..

misrepresentation, which includes providing false information or withholding information directly related to decisions made under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA)

I really cannot remember what I put on the eta form. I think I would have been honest.
I only received a Â£80 fine plus fees.

You say you 'live in Canada' but then say you have an ETA, so on what visa are you living in Canada on? And did you declare the criminal record for that visa?

If you did declare for both your ETA and whatever visa you're there on now, then it's no issue at all. If you lied on either application, then it's potentially a big problem.

if you say yes to that question on an ETA application you are typically asked to provide additional information about the circumstances. I would suggest if you werenâ€™t asked for more details you probably said no the question.
