Hello. Hope I’m in the right place wasn’t sure where to ask this.
Alright so some years back, in 2016, I was arrested for drug driving as well as getting charged with several other traffic offenses, unlicenced, unregistered, etc. I know, very bad, believe me I’ve paid a lot for my bad choices.
In the end I plead guilty, got a huge fine, which I paid off through a work and development order for a drug treatment program.
Anyway what I’m wondering is if anyone knows if this is likely to be an issue for things like international travel. Specifically my understanding is there’s a system whereby after ten years of having committed no additional crimes, of which I’m now 6 years into, offenses like mine become spent and aren’t disclosed for most purposes.
I‘m wondering what the law says about how this applies to our government disclosing offenses to border authorities of other countries.
Thanks for any info.
