The processing was ridiculously slow. They had one guy processing 15 people. The first person had a major issue with his visa. Instead of dealing with this guy last, the one guy working spent all of his time with the guy who had the issue. It was not until I (and another American) talked to a supervisor, did they process the rest of the people coming in. It took over 3 hours to process, even though it only took Glyn 5 minutes after they called her name. |

She had to go to secondary questioning after going through the initial immigration checkpoint and gathering her luggage. She was questioned by 2 additional agents. She said the agent at the first checkpoint was friendly and very brief. One of the agents in secondary questioning was courteous and to the point, but she said the second agent asked a lot of questions and was kind of rude. He also raised an eyebrow at our age difference (10+ years) but she eventually got through. Total time from touchdown to exiting immigration/customs was approximatley 1 1/2 hours so not too bad. |

To begin, I was there to pick up Natalia from her flight at IAD airport on December 16, 2009. I arrived early well before her 5pm arrival but they kept her for another 2 whole hours at customs! They were rude and kept sending her back and forth to the windows and all over the place. I was waiting for her plane to come in and it did...and the time went by. No Natalia. So I walked over to a customs officer, flowers in hand but since he was just getting off his shift he just shrugged off all my questions when I asked about my "missing fiancee." Natalia appeared later (much later, after I was in a state of extreme anxiety and panic) and explained that the customs officers were giving her "the evil eye" and didn't believe her story of a fiance waiting for her at the airport. (Despite the fact that all her documents, medical papers and her USA entry visa was in order) To put a cherry on top of the whole experience at the airport terminal they ripped into the side of Natalia's luggage and tore it beyond repair. What a "wonderful" start of a life's journey. A terrible example of a welcoming committee for others coming to this USA port of entry. Steer well clear of this POE if you want your loved ones to be treated fairly and to remain hassle-free. |
