CBP officer took care of us right there and didn't send us "to the back" which had 1.5hr wait since we had 4month old infant. The officer completed entry quickly (15 mins for the 3 of us) and very professional. wish there was a way to send a not to his boss... |

Entered SeaTac airport with my fiancé after flying overseas. Since I am an American Citizen and have Global Pass, we were moved into the VIP lane, and within 10 minutes had been processed and sent to the CBP room off to the right. A wait of 5 minutes and my fiancé was seen at the desk by the officer. He confirmed her address in the US as well as her phone number and mine for contact. Explained to her she needed to get married within 90 days and then to submit the AOS package. The I-94 was done on-line and I was able to download it onto my phone and then print it out when we arrived at our home in California.
Overall a quick and uneventful experience. |

Having an approved I-212 flags border patrol to do a secondary interview upon every re-entry into the country. It is standard albeit quite an unfortunate inconvenience, extra hour to get in any time we come back.
They were nice enough although the border feels like they treat us all citizens and visitors like criminals. Could be a little nicer and have the same results, they welcomed my wife after I mentioned no one had congratulated us once during the whole process. ANYWAYS it has been a journey to say the least. |
