    Default Expunged Record and Border Check

    So I just got my record expunged and will be driving to Canada this fall. My question is, will the Canadian Immigration will be able to see the arrest record or will it be wiped from their system? I have not been to Canada before so they don't have any previous record in their system of me.

    Also when/if they ask if I had been arrested before, can I say "no" since they won't be able to see this record?

    This is based on the fact that Canada is turning away Americans with prior arrest and/or convictions.

    If it was in the Canadian system before expungement, you should expect it will still be there. Further, as expungement laws vary by state, the conviction may well still be showing up on your criminal record.

    I do not suggest lying to immigration authorities.

    How can it be in the canadian system if it was not accessed by the Canadian Border people before. I doubt that this is true. I know for a fact that FBI purged it from thier system too, so it could not still be in NCIC, would it?
