HELP!
Good day! we had already received our immigrant visa packet and passport, we saw on the Visa of my 21 years old BROTHER the annotation telling "Valid only if "Acc/FTJ Father/Mother/Spouse".

My AUNT on the United States had already book a flight for our family but there is a problem, there's only 5 tickets left on the airlines, while we are all 6 immigrant to travel. So my AUNT just decided to book a flight for my 21 years old BROTHER on another airlines. So he will be travelling alone. We have the same date of flight but were not the same time of departure and arriving on the United States. There's a little bit worry because they put on his visa the annotation ""Valid only if Acc/FTJ Father/Mother/Spouse". So does it mean that he will be required to be accompanied by our MOM?? What is the best thing to do? What should we do? My MOM cannot accompanied him at the Port of Entry (Immigration Officer) on the United States because he will arrive first ..

I entrust everything to GOD.. I believe that He will make a WAY..
FAITH in GOD changes everything

Thank you so much! God bless
I will highly appreciated your response..

Obviously the visa tells you that your brother should be accompanied by one of the people mentioned.So he cannot go to USA if he is alone, as plane as that.

or if somebody knows better, just correct me :@)

I hope it will turn out okay with you:@)

well actually he is not totally alone, its just that we just have a different airline, and the case was he will just arrive more than 5 hours before we arrive at the United States..

He can't enter before main beneficiary. Can enter after alone (FTJ is follow to join). Suggest you change your flights.

[joem22 2]

so we must better cancel his flight now? so whatever happen, he could not enter United States first before the Main Benificiary? but he will just arrive more than 5 hours before the Main Beneficiary will arrive..

[NigeriaorBust 4,087]

It means immigration will not accept him before the main beneficary He would have to wait 5 hours before getting through immigrations

[Big Papa Zone 93]

^^^^^This^^^^^^^^

A few hours wait prior to going through immigration while your other family members arrive isn't going to kill him, is it?

That's exactly what it means. Why do you think they put that on his visa ?

[NicholasNissel 2]

Even if they are gonna arrive later than your bro, they are still not together!Accompanied by means Accompanied by.If they are not gonna arrive together and not on the same flight means, he has no company.Your aunt should have looked into your visas before booking flights.If he will not be accompanied by any of the said person, then he cannot use his visa.So either change flights or he is not going.

It's not CBP that will be a problem.

It's the airline.

The airline may not let him board if his visa has the restriction and he does not met it.

What's the plan if the airline don't let him board?

Change the plane ticket. That's the move that will help the most.

GOD helps those who help themselves first.

My concern was also with the airline not letting him board... If he did and arrived in the USA... He could possibly report to the immigration showing the flight that his family will arrive on so they might hold him in secondary until they arrive. However, if the airline does it let him board, then everyone is messed up... Something to think about...

Quit spreading misinformation please. Visa says "Valid only if Acc/FTJ...." where FTJ stands for Follow To Join. They don't have to be together, just all derivate beneficiaries need to enter either with of after main beneficiary.

I think there is no waiting area before you enter the immigration gate. Another thing, philippine airline personnel and immigration are very strict with this small thing. They may not allow your brother to board the plane. Just ask the mother to be with your brother.

[Ketsuban 1,034]

When getting off our plane, usually the officers surrounding the plane door and the corridors to the immigration hall don't like to see people loitering around. I doubt they'll let your brother hang around for 5 hours before proceeding to immigration and I doubt immigration will let him in by himself if he is even allowed on the flight alone.

It's your choice: spend the money and change the flights, or save the money and deny your brother entry to the States.

OP is not listening...You all must arrive together, so reschedule all flights

explaining to he airlines, it must be 6 seats.....1 hr or 5 hrs is not good

arrive together
