Canadian VISA applicant for entry into China with a criminal record.?
Find answers to your legal question.

Many years ago, when I was young and stupid, I got a criminal record for dealing drugs. I'm trying to apply for a VISA to enter China, but they ask a question on the application, "Do you have a criminal record in China or any other country?" I called the Chinese consulate, and they told me that my VISA application will probably be rejected due to the nature of my criminal record. I have gotten advice that the Chinese consulate does not have access to the criminal records of other countries, so I should be okay to say NO. Does anyone know if the Chinese consulate in Toronto, Canada actually checks every applicant for criminal records? Any help or advice would really help.

You can gamble but if the criminal records will be checked in Toronto, your visa will not be approved. Hope that the Chinese Embassy officials will not check in Toronto.

go to www.cic.gc.ca and see rehabiatiated. you must have your record either cleanred or explained by what used to be callad a minster permit to enter. but even americans with a dui a light crime in the usa cannot enter canada legally. canada is quite strict.

it is not the chinese consulate that checks but the canadian govt
csis and thier rcmp. thier govt spy and police agencies.
