hi there and thanks.i've already looked at the site and im not finding it to helpful.all bunac ask for is a letter from me stating why and when the crime took place and never mentioned anything about rehab forms etc.im looking to hear from experience in this case as they reassured me it would prob be fine but there is a small chance they could want more info.i am wondering what process they go through and how often and why someone would be declined.thanks for your help christmasoompa.
