FYI : Admission into United States
::::>http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/id_visa/legally_admitted_to_the_u_s.xml
There are 327 official ports of entry in the United States.
Q: What is the Inspection Process?
A: All persons arriving at a port-of-entry to the United States are inspected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Officers.CBP Officers will conduct the Immigration, Customs and Agriculture components of the Inspections process. If a traveler has health concerns, he/she will be referred to a Public Health Officer for a separate screening.
Q: What Does the Law Say?
A: The legal foundation that requires the inspection of all persons arriving in the United States comes from the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), see INA 235 [8 U.S.C.]. Rules published in the Federal Register explain the inspection requirements and process. These rules are incorporated into the Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] at 8 CFR 235.
Q: What Can I Expect to Happen at a Port-of-Entry?
A: At The Airport
When arriving at an airport, the airline will give all non-United States citizens a form to complete while still en route to the United States, either Form I-94 (white), Arrival/Departure Record, or Form I-94W (green), Nonimmigrant Visa Waiver Arrival/Departure Form and Customs Declaration form 6059B.
The forms ask for basic identification information and the address where you will stay in the United States.
Upon arrival, the airline personnel will show you to the inspection area. You will queue up in an inspection line and then speak with a CBP officer.
If you are not a U.S. citizen, you should use the lanes marked for non-citizens.
If you are an alien, the CBP Officer must determine why you are coming to the United States, what documents you may require, if you have those documents, and how long you should be allowed to initially stay in the United States.
These determinations usually take less than one minute to make.
* If you are allowed to proceed, the officer will stamp your passport and customs declaration form and issue a completed Form I-94 to you.
**A completed form I-94 will show what immigration classification you were given and how long you are allowed to stay.
Also, If you are an alien, CBP Officers may decide that you should not be permitted to enter the United States.
There are many reasons why this might happen (see INA 212(a)). You will either be placed in detention, or temporarily held until return flight arrangements can be made. If you have a visa, it may be cancelled.
In certain instances, Officer(s) may not be able to decide if you should be allowed into the United States. In this case, your inspection may be deferred (postponed), and you will be instructed to go to another office located near your intended destination in the United States for further processing.
Welcome to America, the land of liberty
