How to obtain history of getting out and in U.S?

[huuloimongcam 0]

Hi VJ members,

I have documents and evidences to support my relationship with my fiancee from 2009 and 2010. However, my evidences in 2009 is a little week and I like to see if I can get a history of travel out into U.S?

As I understand, when you travel international, and when you return to US at a point of entry you are required to fill out a paper to explain your trip such as which country you just visited, how long were you there and for what reason. Is the airport keep track of all those papers? Does anybody know how to obtain those papers?

Thanks again.

You have to write to Customs and Border Protection and request your records under the Freedom Of Information Act.

I dont have the link, but if you google 'CBP + FOIA' Im sure it will take you directly to the info you need!

If you have travelled to the US you should have your plane stubs from boarding passes that is sufficient too. And your passport would be stamped when you entered so you could copy those pages.

US Citizen traveling??

If so then Entry/Exit stamps in passport and visas from foreign country serves this purpose.

Yes Provide a copy of your passport ENTRY into the country you visited

your will also have a exit stamp of your departure also to show when you

left to return back to the USA.

A borading Pass or a copy of your ticket stub showng your fight,

I also use a print out of the purchase of my e ticket and info

provied by the travel company with proof of purchase.

When you enter the country US Custom stamps your entry into the

USA again.

Good Luck.

Happy Holidays

Yes, I am a US citizen. The country that I visited was Vietnam. I looked into my passport and it only have the stamp from US with the date that I was admitted back into the country. I don't see any Vietnam's stamp on there.

I met my fiancee in 2009, but I didn't love her until I met her again in 2010 in VIetnam. So, I wasn't planning about the engagement in 2010. I didn't keep the boarding pass in 2009 but I did keep all the boarding passes in 2010 though. I also have invoices and statements that I paid for my plane ticket in 2009 and I have a letter from Vietnamese authority to prove that I did live temporary at the address near my fiancee where she worked in 2009. However, I'm afraid it maybe a little weak in evidences there.

A stamp of re-entering the US? I have never received a stamp in my passport like this and I make several international trips a year. Your US passport should only be stamped when you enter and leave a foreign country. I am not doubting you, just never heard of a US stamp in a US passport. Paid itenararies are nice but really do not prove travel, boarding passes are better for this. You may try to get some affidavits from family and friends and chat/phone records. With all of that you should be ok. Good luck.

check your passport again.. the guys at immigration in VN are not one to miss putting a stamp in the passport.. if you tried to leave without an entry stamp they would likely give you heck......you will have one when you enter VN and one when you leave... usually the page opposite the visa sticker..

The VN stamps are easy to over look. In the 2 trips I've made to VN I have only gotten a entry stamp. I dont have any exit stamps. I'm not sure if thats because I get a loose leaf visa, and they always collect that on leaving the country.

Scott is right. . .double your passport for the stamps

I did double check my passportt again and again and I don't see any VN stamp in my passport. I only see the stamp on the date that I was admitted back into the country from the Custom Border.
