Well, I'm going to have to do without that then. This is no great loss because I had already decided to forego traveling to the US because the way the border guards treated me on my last visit was enough to make me decide I didn't need that kind of headache. They still owe me a pair of boots.

In the US you can pull your credit report to get that information.

As a non-citizen I don’t think you are eligible for TTP.

Yup, I think it's 5 years but yes.
