I arrived at Newark at about 1:20pm-ish. Got off the plane and was by no means the first there, but the hall was empty (as usual! That's why I always go to Newark :P). I decided to use the visitors' line and was directed to line up behind booth 32 (this is in Terminal C).
I went up when beckoned and when asked why I was there, stated I was entering with a spouse visa before handing him my passport, customs form (I declared nothing, for anyone worried about that, stated my country of residence as the US and put the dollar amount in the residents' section) and giant envelope which I somehow managed to transport without tearing.
He didn't ask anything else, but told me to scan my right fingers (not the thumb) and take a picture before he called for someone to escort me over his radio. I will say this first guy was pretty much a robot. He didn't even make eye contact with me :P
Another guy walked over, took my papers from the first guy, then instructed me to follow him. He seemed kind of awkward but he was friendly. As we were walking to the lift to secondary I said "I've never been to secondary before :D". He replied "Oh, don't worry, it's just to process the umm... *gestures towards envelope*". I told him I knew that already lol and we just made extra small talk in the lift. Especially about the freak warm weather in NY, what the heck guys??
I sat in secondary for about 10 minutes before being called up to do finger prints with real ink and sign the front and back of some form. I didn't take note of what the form was so I've probably sealed my fate in some horrific fashion. I had to double check what address they had for my husband because my data sheet omitted his apartment number. The guy I was with assured me they'd get it to the right place. He was nice. Professional, but nice.
After all was done, my passport was handed back to me and he told me to go see a guard sitting by a plastic wall gate to let me out, which he did. It led straight out to luggage, so if you guys ever want to watch people being tormented by secondary guards, it's right by luggage :D
Got my luggage, handed the slip to the customs officer and was let out. I'd booked a long connection time in anticipation of waiting in secondary for hours, but I ended up sitting around for four hours doing nothing.
And that is how I moved in with my husband. The end. |
