A girl I work with has asked if anyone can help.

About 17 years ago she worked for a large travel firm and was based in Miami and then Orlando. This particular travel firm then started to do holiday to the Bahamas and as is fairly new there was not many holiday makers so they never had a rep based there. She was told that she had to go to the Bahamas to meet the plane which was usually every 2 weeks. She had been doing this for some time but then was stopped and questioned as to why she kept going back and forth. She said she was very naive(sp) and thought that the travel firm had all her paper work in order, turns out they didn't. She was then deported back to UK.

She has now said she would love to take her 8 year old for a holiday and wonders would they grant her a visa or is there no hope and to forget it. She seems to think if she was granted a visa that would be the end, but I said I think she could still be refused entry in USA on arrival.

Any help appreciated.
