My fiancée and I have everything in order (I-129F packet, passport with her Visa, sealed medical packet and CD) and are ready to do port of entry in Miami airport on Wednesday. However, I am seeing mixed answers about which line we should go in. Some say we can both go to the US Citizen line (I seem to remember the customs agent telling me this specifically last time I passed through Miami) and other places online state we both go to the visitors line. The visitors line would significantly cut down on our layover window (about 3 hours).

 

Does anyone know or can you speak from experience?

 

Thank you!

She can't use the kiosks so that is not an option.   When in doubt,  ask.

That's fine. When I use the kiosks I always get the X anyways so we would ideally end up in the line for USCs with an X which is always very quick. I don't see why they would make her wait in the long visitors line when they are going to send us to an interview room anyway.
