After we've landed in Boston Logan airport, I made my way to the immigration counters. I didn't head there immidiately as I needed to freshen up before I meet my husband so used the ladies room first, didn't rush there as I brushed teeth, applied make up etc. (May sound trivial but I assume meantime my flights passengers probably had a large queue at the immigration desk area). The airport immigration desks were fairly empty when I got there. Most of the US citizens (Probably all) use the electronic entry system (which is gate like - like how it's in train/subway stations) I then asked a security officer which queue should I be heading to just to make sure. I was directed to the correct counter, waited for around 2 minutes or so then I was next in line.
The middle-aged officer was friendly and had a smile as I handed him my sealed envelope, as well as medical report. I offered an explanation that I'm here with an immigrant visa to be with my husband. He smiled and handed my medical reports saying "I'm gonna let you hold on to that" He asked basic questions like, Where will I be staying, confirmed address to be sure that my GC will be going to the right address (well that's another story) I was also asked if I had bought any food with me, and how much cash I had on me. My biometrics were taken and he slightly stood up showing my passport explaining how my visa sticker with the stamp will be a valid temporary GC till the real one arrives. Meanwile I can use that for now. He then welcomed me to America and I wished him a nice evening.
Luggage area was nice and efficient, I was able to gather all my belongings in the span of 5 minutes. There were officer with cute dogs (seruisly cute looking canines - not your typical wolf like dogs) walking around bags and suit cases, when the dog was around mine, it totally ignored my cases and moved on. But when a few meters away and was sniffing away at another passengers suitcase. The lady officer then asked if she could take a look at their bags. So I guess some checks depends if the cute ceatures get interested in your belongings.
Headed out and met my husband and his family. Praise Almighty, together at last! :) |

Everything went super smooth and very fast. There was no line at all. My fiancé and I approached the immigration officer, who was very calm and friendly. I was a bit nervous about not having filled out my custom form neatly enough so to calm me down he said ¨Don't overthink it¨ and smiled. I gave him my K1 envelope. We were asked when we were getting married and we said we had no exact date yet but were aware we had 90 days to do so. I got my fingerprints taken and passport stamped. That was it! It took about 2 minutes all together. Friendly, professional and fast. |

Boston Port of Entry (POE), very smooth, less than 3 mins, she went into visitor lane and they opened her medical report. didn't even look at vaccination records, no questions asked really. Stamped with CR1 stamp, but it had no date underneath it. |
