Q: I got an enhanced license with a misdemeanor of having too high of a THC level.
I never had to go to jail or pay a fine. I just had to get SR22 and that's it. But I qualified for an enhanced license that can take me to Canada and Mexico. Will I face any problems if I go to either of those countries?
A:
Mexico may be satisfied with a certified copy of the CLOSED case, showing you are not out of the country while your criminal case is pending. In Canada, this is not sufficient. You must have permission to enter that country. They share the Homeland Security database, which will show the arrest.
Here is one of many Canadian attorneys who handle these cases.
