Hi im from cardiff,wales and ive booked a holiday to america and now ive been notified that if i have a criminal record i might not be able to enter the country.

i was caught shoplifting when i was 16 i am not 23 does anyone know if i have to declare this as it was so long ago.

i didnt spend anytime in prison as it was my first offensive so they took my details and DNA and i was off within 3 hours.

Please can somebody help as ive paid for the holiday and im supposed to be going next june.

Thanks in advance.
