It depends of what airport and what time of the day. But I would say, it takes mainly 20-30 minutes to wait in line. And then 5-10 minutes to be checked by the officer.

or if the POE is really busy and you are the last off of your flight and there were 6 international flights that arrived just before yours it could be 3 hrs..... just depends on so many varaiables....

We arrived @ DFW. It took about 10 minutes in the big line (we walked really fast to get ahead of most of the other passengers on our plane since we knew it would take a while). They told us to go to the citizens/residents line. When we got to the officer, he took us over to another area where we waited 20-30 min; one couple was in front of us.

Good luck!

Err on the side of caution. My husband's POE processing took nearly 3 hours from start to finish -- we arrived at Newark at a time when several other European flights were coming in, and it was shortly before the new school year began so there were a lot of student visas to process as well. Oh yes, and then he was "forgotten" in secondary for nearly 2 hours -- no one noticed he had been overlooked.
