Hi guys. I did a K-1 back in 2010 - the memories! It was successful and we made the move to the states. Logan story short, after 11 weeks we decided to move to New Zealand! I had filed all my papers for the next step after getting married (I forget the name of all the forms and visas, sorry) but right after posting them we changed our minds and cancelled the check for the fee. The application had only been received and not acted on at the stage of cancelling the check, and I got a few emails saying my application was going to be cancelled unless I sent in another check. I think I sent an email saying I wasn't going through with the process and we stopped getting letter from USCIS. But now 6 years later we want to visit my aunt in New Jersey and I'm worried that I won't be allowed into the country and past immigration. The truth is it just didn't work out. Can I just book my flights and hope for the best? I will have proof of an ongoing flight to Ireland about a week later. Any help is so much appreciated! Thanks. Aoife

You'll need VWP (assuming you're eligible), other than that you'll probably be fine :-)

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.

shouldn't be a problem, but I would fill in the online ESTA forum before booking flights, just in case.

So the ESTA form says I am eligible to travel. Is that all I need? I don't need to fill out a form or anything for the VWP? I just turn up to immigration and go through?

ESTA us what you fill out for VWP. Did you register, fill out the form and pay the fee? Did you get your approval?

That's it. Remember that your ESTA is linked with your passport - and will expire after two years or when you renew your passport (whatever happens first).

Having an ESTA (like having a visa) does not guarantee entry to the US, it's the border officer who determines that.

Good luck!

If it isn't difficult, it isn't worth it.
