After a long 8 hour flight from London, I arrived at BWI expecting the long queues of people that I saw in JFK. However to my delight it wasn’t that long. I came into the immigration area as they were opening the booths up, and I was 5th-10th in line for mine (it has been a month so my mind is a bit hazy on the exact number).
Within 10 minutes I was being seen, the person didn’t really want to talk to me. Told me I needed secondary processing and handed my package (the one I was carrying with me) over to another guy who then took me and my package to a room and sat me down. There was one person waiting in front of me.
I waited 30 minutes or so, then it was my turn and the lady asked if I wanted to get married in the USA, what my career was and when I planned to get married. I answered promptly and she handed over my passport with it already stamped. I guess she must have stamped it before even asking me my questions. She then asked if I knew the process to Adjust Status after marriage, I said yes and then I asked how long it would take and she cracked a joke about it being slow.
And then I was off. It was simple, just a waiting game as the rest of process thus far.
