How do we differentiate ?

Post by genuine_query » Tue, 17 Aug 2010 8:04 pm

Difference b/w
> Deported

> Detained

> Denied Entry

-the reason behind asking this question is what to fill in the immigration form for the question "were you denied access to this country at anytime?" (question format might be different)

If they deny entry, obviously... they will make them return in the next available flight... (till then, can it be called as 'held')
