POE experience

We landed at Guam at 430am and went straight to immigrations. Paul got into the Non-U.S. citizen line with me. We were first off the plane so there was no line. The female officer only ask us how long we have been married and where they could mail the green card. Then she picked up the phone and asked for a secondary. We were shown to a office and I had my signature checked and then one fingerprint. We where told our visa is a one year residency card but we should get a 10 year green card within 6-8 weeks and if we don't they gave us a form to mail in. They didn't gave us back the I-94 and told us we don't need it back with the IR-1 visa. No one ask for the x-ray so Paul left it folded up in his carry on. Everyone was very friendly and the whole process took only about 10 minutes. Then we were able to just relax as we flew across the Pacific. :star:
