Hello.

My nexus application was declined due to an immigration violation, I had overstayed my visa 8 years ago before I immigrated to Canada. Stupid me had no idea that was even going to come up or I would never have bothered to apply for the nexus card.

My partner (a US and Canadian citizen) got declined as well for "knowingly living with an illegal alien etc etc"

I am currently a permanent resident of Canada and have a 10 year multiple entry visa to come into the US. Will I still be allowed to enter the US after the nexus decline? Or have a screwed myself permanently?
