Well You live and learn. I have had an email confirming I am allowed entry under the visa programme.
So at least I can enter.Cost me though-bloomin robdogs
On another note my DB has decided after reading hundreds of posts on hundreds of forums and the official US site about moral turpitude he is NOT going to go through with his visa application. I am worried sick about it but they are nothing but money scammers(that was from a US official)
. He has a Dui which finishes next month never had any other problems with the police so is not gonna pay out another £250 for a medical/blood test and courier service after already spending over £200 I also searched and apparently anyone with a DUI conviction doesnt need to answer yes on the esta form. He phoned someone today and his esta has been approved and the guy said not to worry.When he gets to the states they will not even bat an eyelid as they have no access to british records unless a person is a known murderer/terroroist etc. One forum said that a guy was asked why he had a visa and the security guy laughed and said it was ridiculous when he said it was for a single DUI. He also said "Has george bush ever been arrested for a DUI"
After all the stress and bad luck we have both had I didnt want to risk it but after DB speaking to some officials in the US today it has reassured us. Im just worried that is the esta enough to secure entry because anyone could say they have no moral turpitude issues but could be lying.Hard decision for us.As 99% of people have said dont worry im trying not to but until we land and go through the grillin i wont relax.
Does anyone know if the esta would flag up any issues or is there still a risk that DB may get stopped? I know some of you will say I should get a visa to be on the safe side but with only 10 weeks to go he was told it can take up to three months to sort and as nothing has started yet.They didnt scan his passport nothing.Just said standard procedure for all DUI to attend a medical and gave his passport back. This should have been done first in my eyes instead of a 3 hr expensive train journey $140 visa fee +£1.20 a min which cost us £24 to get through to them. He has emailed them today to say to send his forms back as he is not going to proceed.Hope they will and dont send copies off to the us
