Conçu pour ceux dont le passé pourrait les suivre jusqu'à la frontière.

Chaque situation est différente. Cette évaluation confidentielle est conçue pour vous si l’une des situations suivantes s’applique :

Vous avez tout antécédent lié aux drogues

Possession, accusation ou divulgation antérieure peuvent soulever des questions à la frontière américaine.

3

Vous avez déjà été questionné, signalé ou refusé à la frontière américaine

Nous vous aiderons à comprendre pourquoi et ce qui peut être fait ensuite.
