I've been denied entry once before, and been sent to secondary screening at YVR more times than I care to remember and they still gave me a NEXUS pass. (although to be honest, at the time I applied, I had a TN visa) The whole point of NEXUS is that it's a "trusted traveler" program where you've been pre-screened and deemed low risk and hence don't require as rigorous screening. I'm pretty sure they'll accept any reasonable reason for getting a NEXUS pass (like you go there shopping or you like to vacation in the US a lot).

Were you denied entry for a black mark on your record? Do they stay on your record forever?
I was reading the eligibility guidelines where it says. 'you may not qualify if one of the following applies:'
you have a recorded violation of customs, immigration or agriculture law;
So i'm assuming if you've ever mis/underdeclared and been caught, then you can't get a nexus card?
