What are the chances....

[Rob C 2]

Well guys,

I love reading all these stories about people visiting! It can be a heart warming read when you in disillusion about the whole process...

So, what do you think my chances are for another visit at the end of April for 3 weeks? History as follows....

April 27th 2012 - May 7th 2012 (POE Newark)

August 23rd 2012 - August 29th 2012 (POE Chicago O'Hare)

November 14th 2012 - February 9th 2013 (POE Chicago O'Hare)

I am a self employed carpenter, with work booked in for a building contractor when i return (letter detailing this).

I have plenty of funds to support myself.

DO NOT HAVE mortgage, rental agreement, car ownership

DO HAVE creditcard bill, shotgun license (only I can open the cabinet, Illegal for the gun to be in my fathers house when my license expires), will have a return ticket, my NOA1, K-1 paperwork.

I've never had an issue coming through before, but it's always nice to get the opinion of others.

Do you think i should change my POE?

I know about the whole 'your not guaranteed to get in' stuff, but others experiences are always a plus...

Thanks in advance!

Last time i visited the U.S. was 1st December 2012. I entered the U.S. at Minneapolis airport and i spoke with a consular officer mentioning our k-1 application. (he checked this) I told him i had a return ticket and he asked to see the return itinerary. I think it helps a lot of you have your return itinerary with you as proof of your booked return flight. I was allowed to stay for up to 90 days on the Visa Waiver Program (ESTA). Plus i had our baby with me (but he is a U.S. citizen and traveled on a U.S. passport) not sure if that made any difference. But the return ticket did. I showed him the online booking i printed off my email prior to flying.

Yeah, I always take my return ticket with me, as (and correct me if i'm wrong) it's a necessary document with regards to the VWP.

In fact, I'm sure they asked me for it the last time I entered.

Did you take any proof of employment?

If you take a return flight itinerary, as well as a printed copy of your original submission and NOA1, you'll probably be absolutely fine. They might give you hassle, but there's very little chance they won't let you in. I'm flying into JFK April 3rd - there's always a possibility they'll turn you back, but not very likely.

When was the last time you visited and for how long?
