Hi
I have tried get some help at a lot of places, but nothing. I am hoping to get some support from learned men and women here.
I was convicted of Careless Driving causing injury in New Zealand in 2011 but, on medical grounds, had to leave NZ and return to my home country. So the sentencing could never take place while I was there. Because there was no fixed date of my return then, the judge on the next hearing, issued a warrant of arrest against me. Now, after 7 years which is in a couple of months, I will be cleared off all the convictions and possibly the arrest warrant too.
I wish to know if not having been sentenced for your convictions can be a reason for inadmissibility? I had medical reasons to not attend sentencing.
If only convictions were to be seen, more than 5 years have lapsed and I should be deemed rehabilitated.
Please provide some guidance on this.
Thanks!
