I thought it would be good to start a thread here for people who are about to enter the US on various different visas. Since I'm first, I'll ask a question

I'm going to the US at the end of the month on a Visa Waiver Program, my fiancé and I have logged our first step towards getting the K-1 visa last week. Obviously, there is a good chance that the immigration official will pick that up when I am questioned. If asked for my purpose of stay, should I inform him that I am seeing my fiancé on the VWP? I'm only going for 6 weeks.

Thoughts and comments appreciated.

Not a K-1 visa general discussion topic... moving thread

PS. There are hundreds of topics on this matter.... just not in the K-1 forum

YMMV

If you enter the US with a Visa Waiver, which is for tourists, you answer that you are on a vacation. You don't have to list or even name the people or places you want to visit.

There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism. When I refer to hyphenated Americans, I do not refer to naturalized Americans. Some of the very best Americans I have ever known were naturalized Americans, Americans born abroad. But a hyphenated American is not an American at all . . . . The one absolutely certain way of bringing this nation to ruin, of preventing all possibility of its continuing to be a nation at all, would be to permit it to become a tangle of squabbling nationalities, an intricate knot of German-Americans, Irish-Americans, English-Americans, French-Americans, Scandinavian-Americans or Italian-Americans, each preserving its separate nationality, each at heart feeling more sympathy with Europeans of that nationality, than with the other citizens of the American Republic . . . . There is no such thing as a hyphenated American who is a good American. The only man who is a good American is the man who is an American and nothing else.
