  1. Question # 4.13 on your visa application:

    "Have you ever been refused entry to, deported from, or otherwise required to leave, another country?" Yes or No.

    When you sign the application, you affirm that the information you have provided is complete and true to the best of your knowledge. What do you think you should do?

    Hint 1: There is a permanent record of your formal deportation from the United States.

    Hint 2: Tell the truth, and do not violate the UK Immigration Act of 1971. In Section 10 of the application, you may provide an account of the circumstances surrounding your situation.

    NOTE:  Based on your statements, you would have been an adult at the time you started accruing unlawful presence in the US, so you would be considered to be culpable for the violation.


  2. They will like it better if you told them the truth.... And yes they will find out your past deportation record. They thing is you were not deported from the UK. That is all that counts.

  3. Interview must be  the point,Let them answer whats they ask only.but if comes to that question.....

    will suggest to must clear the truth but in such a way so that they realise the real situation problem and reason of that.I am sure they will apologize you.....

  4. In your application for a student visa (VAF1 PAGES 4-5) there is question 4.7 Have you ever been refused a visa for another country? Yes or No Then, question particulars through 4.13. You will have to be truthful OR your application will be denied OR worse, they will find out when you are studying and deport you again.

    It was not your fault. Do the right thing and tell the truth. Get that fear over with once and for all.

    May everything turn out well for you.**

  5. If they don't ask, don't tell.

    If they DO ask, don't LIE!

    This legal entanglement was your mother's, not yours.

    .

  6. dont ask dont tell.

  7. how about...if they don't ask, don't tell.  but...if they do ask, tell the truth.  you were ELEVEN!!!!  it's not like you could have said, "mom this is wrong!  i'm buying a plane ticket and moving home!"  it wasn't your doing, you were a child.

  8. well don't tell them if they don't ask. Be postive durning the interview, both internally and externally.If they do ask, just be honest with them to the best of your abilities, don't lie or anything, because they will do background checks. Basically just be yourself, and you should do fine.

  9. Tell the truth it will be found out,which will really hurt your chances.

  10. Three words -

    Tell The Truth

    You are not responsible for the mis-handling of your family affairs as a youth. As far as you know, you lived in a normal family - how could you have known differently? You did as you were told, and it's not your fault that your family has the history it has.

    Now then, since your family was in fact deported, there is a strong chance it is on file somewhere. They may or may not already know about this. Lying about it does 2 things - first, if they already know, you are busted. Second, if they find out later, you are busted. Either way, you are busted.

    Don't make the same mistakes your mother made - travel all you want, and I wish you the best learning in the UK, but do it through legitimate channels. Otherwise, it may be your kids asking people the same questions someday.

    Cheers

  11. just stay positive at the interview.

    it is best not to bring up the topic, what they (may) don't know can't harm u.

    except, when they're the one who asked whether you ever had problems in immigration issues.

    just tell them the truth with the most rational arguments that you can come up.

  12. Giv them a straight answer!

    dont hide.

    it'll be found.

    ur chances may be more if u tell them the truth!!
