[quote=GUEST22635,331802]My experience - I am a Canadian with a criminal record, and got a visa to enter China recently. It was a break and enter and theft x 2 conviction from 20 years ago in Canada - suspended sentence, no jail time. As this is defined as a crime of "moral turpitude" according to the US Dept of Homeland Security (whole separate story) I was concerned that I wouldn't get this approved. I applied for a category F, single visit business visa, and stated on the application that I have a criminal record. I also included a separate page with a brief explanation of the crime along with my current situation - different person now, remorseful, married, kids, good job, etc. The visa was approved in the usual amount of time with no issues. I arrived in China this week.[/quote]
