U.S. Entry Waiver in Quebec City

Travelling to the United States with a criminal record is possible, but it starts with a waiver: an official permission that lifts the entry ban your record could otherwise trigger. Even a short stopover in an American airport can end in a refusal, so it pays to prepare before you book your trip. At our Quebec City office, an advisor sits down with you to assess your admissibility, answer your questions and assemble a complete application. We serve clients throughout the capital region, including Sainte-Foy, Charlesbourg, Beauport and Lévis, and every consultation remains strictly private.

The U.S. Entry Waiver at a Glance

Canadian criminal records are visible to American border officers, which means a conviction can result in denied entry regardless of why you are travelling. After a case-by-case review by U.S. authorities, a granted waiver remains valid for one to five years and can then be renewed. A Canadian record suspension, on the other hand, has no official status at the border; it supports your file but does not replace the waiver. Learn more on our turnkey record suspension application page.

A complete application involves official court records, English translations and follow-ups with the U.S. government, and quality matters at every step. Our advisors prepare everything for $950 on a new application, or $550 for a renewal, plus the $1,100 USD processing fee charged by U.S. Customs and Border Protection. For the full picture, see our waiver / permission to enter U.S. territory service page.

Frequently Asked Questions in Quebec City

Do I need to book ahead to meet an advisor in Quebec City?

Yes, all meetings at our avenue des Replats office are by appointment. A waiver file involves several documents and deserves an unhurried review, so booking a time slot lets us give you our full attention. Call 418-380-0891 and a member of our team will find a time that suits you.

Your identification, plus anything you already have on file: court judgments, proof of paid fines, confirmation that your sentence and probation are complete. Missing pieces are common and nothing to worry about. As part of the mandate, your advisor can retrieve the official records for you, which often speeds things up.

Yes. Our office is a short drive from Lévis via the bridges and Autoroute Laurentienne. If the trip is inconvenient, your application can also be handled remotely, no matter where you live; that said, an in-person meeting remains the better option for more complex files.
