Hi folks,

Ive booked my flight to Tampa but now have another couple of daft questions.

1. Do I have to inform anyone of my impending arrival?

2. Do you join the same queue in the states that you would on a tourist visa?

Many Thanks again.

1. Don't forget to let your partner know so they can pick you up! :)

2. When I got to the POE I approached a member of staff near the border patrol lines, showed them my brown envelope and told them I was a new immigrant. They then directed me where to go ( I think it was the non US citizen line) then when I got to the CBP officer he looked at my stuff and got someone else to collect me for the other formalities. Didn't take long at all. Good luck!

You just go through the Non USC line and tell them you're arriving with a visa (K-1 or whatever you have).

If you're lucky, the CBP will know what to do, if not it'll take a little longer while they figure it out.

There should be no problems unless you've been dealing drugs or such.

Welcome!

You can file a P85 document to let the UK know you're leaving. My husband got around 2000 pounds back from inland revenue(?)eventually for over-paid taxes.
