I lam from Panama and left Canada in 1994 after being refused refugee status. I have now settled in Spain and would like to attend Olympics by end of February. Since the application form asks about any previous entries and departures from Canada, I wonder if records are kept these long and should I come clean? I can proof current permanent ties (job, funds, common-law partner).Thanks for any advice.

Yes, they keep records for that long.
Are you a Spanish citizen? In that case you are visa-exempt.

Ah, I see. Well, you can always give it a whirl; it's not that expensive.
You can also get a package deal from a tour operator. From what I've heard, it's much easier to get a visa when you have it done that way, because it shows that you are truly only going for tourism purposes. There are no guarantees, though.
