Did you use ESTA which you are required to do: https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov Does anyone know, what if i fly from NZ to England, but the plane stops off at Los Angeles to re-fuel, does this mean I need to register with ESTA because i am in the USA but only because the plane is re-fueling. |

| 835625 | 2009-12-02 06:43:00 | This from the ESTA site. Q: Do nationals or citizens of countries that participate in the VWP require an ESTA if they are only transiting the United States en route to another country? A: Yes. The United States no longer has a Transit Without Visa program, so eligible nationals or citizens of countries that participate in the VWP require either an ESTA or a visa to transit the United States. If a traveler is only planning to transit through the United States en route to another country, when he or she completes the ESTA application, the traveler should enter the words "In Transit" and his or her final destination location in the address lines under the heading “Address While In The United States”.

I wanted to enter a competition for the first prize of an all expenses paid trip to New York. But sadly due to poor judgement, about 12 years ago I was stopped at a police checkpoint and busted for being slightly over the booze limit. This means that if I wanted to go there I'd have to apply for a visa and have an appointment with some government outfit here, both of which would cost. Stuff that for a joke. I've never been to USA, nor ever will. |

Although just had a quick look apparently your not supposed to conceal your history when overseas that seems stupid then? But then again how they would find out if your record is clean I'm not sure. |
