POE was really easy. I arrived very early as I was coming from Quebec City to Montreal and I had had previous bad experience. I was there over 5h early. I got to the airport around 13h40. I dropped my bags and explained to the lady why I was there so early, then I went through security. This was a bit long because they didn't have a lot of rows open. Then I went to go through custom, being a Canadian we normally use the electronic, but I told them I was activating a visa so they sent me the long way. When I talked with the first officer, he was very nice, he just was coming back from secondary inspection room, so I told him he would need to make another trip, he laughed and asked why. I showed him the envelope, he asked what it was about, I told him that I was going to marry my man, he asked where, took my fingerprints and picture and brought me to secondary.
I waited there for maybe 30 minutes. When my name got called, it was to the desk so I wasn't even getting to sit! I made mention of how quick it was (basing myself off of my previous experience when I waited for 2h before getting called). The guy looked at me smiling and said are you being sarcastic, this will get you a long way. I told him I wasn't at all and explained the past situation. I gave him the envelope, he asked where I was going, I said Las Vegas, so he told me how lucky I was to get out of here and the cold. After that it was all small chat and fun. They were two at the counter, but one main, one of their coworker showed up and he looked really angry, so I made a remark that I got lucky with them, they said he was Mr. Sunshine. As I said...the whole interview took maybe 5-10minutes, and most of it was joking, fun and laugh. They said I was the best K1 ever lol (don't be salty ). Then the other guy made mention of not leaving the US until I had adjusted my status, so I mentioned the advanced parolee and he raised both his thumbs at me and winked.
