    From memory they don't look at anything financial, its only skills work etc, have a look on the british expats forum.

    This has been ask quite a few times on here and it seems that it does not affect you emigrating to Australia but that could have changed since we were last asked so give the Australian Consulate a ring or as lol says look at an expat forum and ask them.

    Let us know the answer.

    AFAIK its only a criminal record that would stop you completely. There's irony for you!
