Unfortunately, this is going to be a very serious issue for you.
Debra Thal (username) :
You are at this point considered to be inadmissible to Canada on the basis of criminality and won't likely be admitted to visit or as a permanent resident for some time, likely 5 years.
Debra Thal (username) :
Canada takes DUIs very seriously.
Debra Thal (username) :
I don't know the law in the US but I cannot see how you could get a pardon so soon.
JACUSTOMER-eqwy3uwo- :
I'm Australian. Does that make a difference?
Debra Thal (username) :
No.
Debra Thal (username) :
I don't know the law there either but it's not likely you can get a pardon so quickly.
Debra Thal (username) :
Clearly you should ask your lawyer who acted for you about this.
