I was allowed to withdraw my application to enter Australia and deported once

I refused to let them see my cellphone. Stupid in retrospect - I had nothing on it; but I thought it wouldn't be grounds to deny me entry

Long ago I had an under-the-table summer job in Spain lined up - I flew into England on a red eye and, tired as fuck at Heathrow customs, I accidentally said too much about where in the EU I was planning to go & why.

the guy made me squirm for a while before ultimately letting me in, but it was a very close call

I once tried to drive solo from S. Africa to India in a Jeep Wrangler, but I only had papers for like approximately 70% of the countries

the border agents were doubly pissed off because my stereo was blasting Bruce Springsteen. Even my non-western friend couldn't get me out of that jam

I go to Canada pretty frequently (like couple times a quarter) and they're either the best experience ever or absolute psychopaths with zero room in between.

Half the time they don't even look at my papers now and just wave me through before the window finishes rolling down.

Canada has easily the dumbest and most annoying Customs in the world.

the country has officially decided borders don't exist, so in one corner they will be waving through Syrian terrorists while randomly harassing by rich white people who just want to visit Niagara Falls because they suspect they may have an untaxed sandwich in their purse.

I got held up at Heathrow for several hours because I made the mistake of answering questions honestly. I was in biglaw and the work permit that had been put in my passport looked like I was there as a dependant. So the guy asked what my spouse did for a living and I said I'm not married and it went downhill from there.

It actually wound up being cheaper and easier to get EU citizenship from another country than it was to get the UK to sort out the mistake they'd made. It was ridiculous.

He was pretty officious, honestly. They kept me in a roped off waiting area with an African family of 5 who had basically all their personal possessions with them ( it was at least 30 suitcases). They of course pretended to not understand a word of English.

What saved me was that I had the original work permit in my luggage. The guy didn’t believe me and kept saying I was going to be sent back on the next plane bound for US if it wasn’t in my luggage.

We went to collect my bags and I pulled it out. The firm had made a mistake and had pu my US salary in pounds at a time when the pound was very strong. So it looked like I was making 160 GBP.

When he saw that he was sheepish and asked “Do you mind if I ask what you do for that pay packet?”

China - was in HK and turned away at the Chinese Embassy. Went online and found a link to a place to "get a stamp" - headed to the office, handed in passport and $80 told to come back the next day. It was "officially" stamped and I was able to live in China for a year.

Good to know I guess. Unfortunately I have a habit of honest so if they ask me if I had one I'm gonna say yeah

I'm curious as to whether or not they ask about "criminal" convictions, because I'm a bit lucky in that my DUI was in Wisconsin. Technically my DUI was not a misdemeanor or felony, it was just a citation.

I sort of want to drive up to Canada just to see if I can get in. It's about a 5 hour drive each way though so that seems a bit silly

i believe the rule is an act that would be considered a crime if committed in Canada, regardless of what it is back home.

you could put your lawyer skills to work drawing a distinction between what is covered by the Wisconsin and Canadian drunk driving laws
