POE help help help

[Steph and George 1]

Okay, okay, okay So i'm reading about people who are going through their POE in between flights? I'm from Winnipeg, and I'm flying out of winnipeg into the states. Do I go through my POE when I leave winnipeg or do I go through it in the states when I land? I've booked my flight and I only have a 45 minute layover.

thanks everyone

I don't know how that goes..My Hubby is coming to the US from berlin to Chicago and His POE will be in Chicago and he made sure the layover was at least 3 hrs because he wasn't sure what to expect at the POE stuff

_{I hope you're not flying into O'Hare, LaGuardia , or JFK for your POE. POE is the first place you land in the US and with just a 45 minute layover that seems kinda risky especially considering you have to go through immigration and the lines..... Are you able to make changes to your ticket and maybe take a later flight from there that will for sure give you enough time? Hope everything turns out well in your travels.}

When I left Vancouver last time, a few years ago, I actually cleared US customs at the Vancouver Airport. Here is a list of airports that do 'pre clearances', and there is a phone number you can call.

Winnipeg is at the bottom of the Canadian section.
