Question on visitor visa (B-2)

[kptaylor 5]

Not sure where to post this question, so I hope this is the right area.

My wife's ex-husband lives in Romania. He obtained his visitor visa (B-2) back in 2007 and it is still valid. He has never visited the US, so this visa has not yet been used. Since the 2007 issuance of the visa, he has been diagnosed as manic depressive, and has been hospitalized numerous times for in-patient treatment. (Usually 3-4 weeks at a time.) He also tried to commit suicide at one point, but was not successful. He refuses to accept that he has any problems and he does not take his prescribed medicine.

He is now in a manic phase and told us he plans to buy a plane ticket for January to come visit us in the US, and stay here in Phoenix for 90 days. Since we are not very receptive to this idea and have no plans to support him while he's here, how would we go about providing information to Customs & Border Patrol regarding his visa and the mental health issues he's suffering from? Mental health issues are one factor that could result in him being denied entry to the US if it's determined he poses a risk of property, safety & welfare to himself or others. He also would not have the required amount of cash/credit to sustain three months in the US, and we want to make sure he does not mislead the CBP into thinking he's visiting with us and that we are providing him room, board, transportation, etc.

Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Good questions, and justified concern.

I'd consult the CBP directly. Here is a link from which you can find an appropriate port of entry to call:

Let us know what they tell you, si man.

Thanks TBone! That was my next course of action. Anyone else have any ideas?

If he knocks on your door, call 911.

I wonder how does he know your address?

Anyway, I concur with the previous post. If by any chance he shows up, call 911.
