Undeclared UK Conviction

Upvote:4

You asked the same question a few months ago, which was closed as primarily opinion-based. Then, it was for a wedding; now you wish to reapply for a conference. After a refusal, your premise for visiting the UK is going to be examined closely.

You misjudged: the offense was committed decades ago and had you revealed it in your initial application, it might have been considered spent and a visa issued. Now, you have a much greater problem and a new application has risks, particularly inviting a long-term ban.

You haven't included your refusal notice but likely it would have been for deception (by omission) under Appendix V Section 3.6 of the rules, as covered in the linked response. The UK really dislikes this and you were caught.

Your credibility has been severely damaged; in short, the UKVI has little cause to believe and you would have to overcome that burden for a second application to have a chance of success.

Rather than random strangers on the internet, you would be better served though a discussion with a UK solicitor.
