Re: Criminal record question
IMHO if you have No Trace on an ACRO then that should be the end of it.

Re: Criminal record question
From the info in your other thread (ecstasy as well as cannabis) that means he'll definitely need rehab. If there's any doubt he can do an 'info only' app but tbh I think that would be a waste of time from what you've said previously. So would just get cracking with rehab, but tell the employer and make sure they're aware it can take a long time. Hopefully they'll be prepared to wait for him.
Best of luck.

Re: Criminal record question
So, the ACRO has come back today showing no live trace. He is going to upload that as requested, along with the SAR paperwork which shows DUI and also includes the court printout. I don’t know what else to do about the other offences as they have not come up despite the request for everything held on him.

The other offences may no longer be on file. That long ago they could well have been weeded and thus deleted from his record. I can't speak so surely about the fines, but I would say that is certainly the case with the charge that was admonished.

Just a wee update and thanks to everyone who has offered advice. We submitted the ACRO and requested documentation and have just had eTA approval come through today. Woohoo!!
Really pleased as he was feeling that it would probably be denied and then he would have to apply for rehab. He may have just been fortunate, but glad he was totally honest and got the positive result.

Excellent news. The whole process can be stressful! Huge weight off shoulders for sure and always best to be honest. Especially if plans to emigrate.
