Port of Entry

[KemalTuanaYalcin 16]

Hi There,

I had a question and was hoping if someone might be able to provide an answer or if anyone knew of any resources to look at. Are there specific entry ports that individuals must use when coming to the U.S from Turkey after they have their visa approval? I am asking because the two times I have flown to Turkey, I have flown from DFW to New York or Chicago but always my return flight from Istanbul is to Chicago. Does it matter where your destination flight lands in the U.S when coming from Turkey? Normally I fly into Chicago and then from Chicago to Dallas, so I was just curious if we would need to look into alternative flight options?? Anyone have a clue?

Thanks

Your POE doesn't matter at all. Get the cheapest or most convenient flight for you.

Hi There,

He has to go to the customs first place his plane lands,that might take long time for his visa and passport control.Then he has to collect his luggage there and then he has to check in again where ever he goes to. I am going to get my husbands ticket either from Frankfurt or Amsterdam(depends on which airline he is flying with)directly to Houston so he doesn't have to do all of that.

My husband has flown through Frankfurt and Amsterdam non-stop to DFW. We think it's the best option as opposed to flying Chicago or JFK..DFW was also his POE when he came here on K1.

Hey, thanks so much. Yes, I have seen that route as one option. How does that work exactly though, if my fiance flys from Turkey to Amsterdam or Frankfurt won't he have to go through customs and all that there too?

POE is the first place the plane stops upon entering the USA, regardless of the final destination. For example, let's say your plane was going AMS-JFK-ORD-DFW, your POE would be the Seventh Layer of Hell known as JFK.
