POE - travel during K1 process

[smilik 0]

We are waiting NOA2 and my fiancee is going to travel to US to visit me for a month, she was here 5 months ago and stayed 30 days. She was in states multiple times before always for 2-3 weeks.

Which POE is more friendly for travel? I heard that Seattle is tough and NY is more easy.

Are there any statistic on POE denied entry or anybody has any experience ? Which POE is better and more friendly?

Thanks

Welcome to the forum.

Though there may be variability between the various POEs, there is also likely variability between the various CBP personnel at the various POEs.

YMMV

Thank you,

you are right, but some POE is tougher than another, I heard from several people that Seattle is very difficult sometimes, it's also depends on supervisor...

From which country is your fiancée arriving? Depending on the flight options available, that would dictate the POE.

She is arriving from Russia, she can get flight to NY JFK or Seattle, I ma trying to understand which POE is more "friendly"

I heard that in DC and Seattle people get scrutinized more often even without k1

I went through Newark in march. Had tons of documents of ties with me. But I was asked only two questions

1) How long are you gonna stay in Hawaii? (-3 weeks)

2) Is your connecting flight tomorrow? (-yes, arrived at Newark at 9 pm)

I had a difficult time at Philadelphia airport, without K1 petition, just on my visa waiver program.

and their service is so bad, and so slow.

the only good thing is there's a corner in the airport we can get free wifi.

I would suggest checking through the POE reviews for the airports you are thinking about having her use: http://www.visajourney.com/reviews/poereviews.php
