Minnesotagirl

Thanks for all the replies guys.

I don't really have any bill i could bring, but i can bring confirmation of my return home. I can also ask at work if they would give me a return to work letter to say when i will be coming back.

My POE was Minnesapolis St Paul International.. I flew with Delta straight from Heathrow.

I have not experianced the harsh Minnesota winters yet, but my bf has told me all about them. Im sure nothing will prepare me for how cold its going to be and how much snow there will be!

I have been considering the move over to the USA to be with my boyfriend but we have not filed for our K1 yet.

I have spoken at length about the things i think i would miss. I know i would miss my family because there arn't many of us and we are very close. I know i would miss some of my friends.

Skype has been my lifeline for me and my bf and i think it would work well for me when i move so i can talk to my family. I also, once i get over there and adjust my status plan to come back to the UK atleast once a year, and my parents would hopefully come over here to visit too.

Like others it depends on the person. I myself feel i am ready to start a new life away from the UK and be with the one i love. I know i would miss certain foods and certain cultural differences, but i know if i can keep the contact with my family, then i will be able to be happy.

Thanks everyone for your replies.

When we first decided to meet i flew through Chicago and had very little trouble. They wern't even interested in my final destination. This time just hit me i guess, just how much information they wanted from me.

Last time i was going for 3 weeks, this time only 2. So if i just show them proof of a return ticket do you think this will be enough? Did anyone take any other things with them to prove they wern't going to stay, or did they believe you when you told them it was a holiday to see your other half?

Thanks

Hi. Im not sure if i have posted this in the right place, so if not i apologise, im new to this.

I need some advice.

I have a boyfriend who lives in Minnesota and we have been considering getting married and applying for the K1 visa, but we haven't filed yet.

I recently went to see him (June 2011) and was bombarded with questions by the Customs and Borders officers. They asked me a lot of questions about my life in the UK and my job, family and friends and who i was coming to see and why i was coming to the USA. They finished with the "do you have a boyfriend in the United States" to which i replied "No". By this point in the questioning i was worried they were going to send me back, even though i know i hadn't done anything wrong, i felt guilty and scared.

I am planning trip back to see him again in November for Thanksgiving and i was wondering a few things.

If they ask me again this time if i have a boyfriend should i just admit it? If i do, what will happen? Should i just lie and say im coming to visit some friends for the holidays?

Is it worth flying into another port of entry, or is that a little extreame?.

Just really worried and would appreciate any advice or any experiances anyone else has had.

Thanks
