:help: K1 Visa- Port of Entry: If I have a flight to Newark with scale in Atlanta...?

[Mo & Jo 4]

Hey everyone.

I got e-mail from Embassy of Buenos Aires telling me I'll have my visa and package at the DHL office between Monday- Wednesday I was starting to get worried with all this backlog thing, but fortunately it only took few extra days for me.

Anyway, my question is...

I have a flight to Newark with scale in Atlanta (1:30' h scale). Where do I need to do the immigration process, in Atlanta during the scale or in Newark? How long did it take for you?

Also, I have my vaccinations list from my asigned Dr. He told me I only needed to get one, the Influenza, which I got some days ago in a public clinic, and they put a stamp and seal on the Dr's prescription for the vaccine. So I have the list that he gave me, plus this paper that says I have put the one I had left. Should I put this along with the X-rays envelope and present it like that?

Thanks in advance!

Hugs

You will go through Immigration in Atlanta. 1 hour and 30 minutes is a very short layover time in Atlanta. There is a good chance you may miss your flight to Newark. Go to the POE section of Visa Journey and read about peoples' experience in Atlanta. It will really depend on what time of day you come through Atlanta. You will probably have to change terminals as well. 3 hours between flights would be more prudent.

But...if it is quiet, you might just find that 1.5 hours is perfect!

You will, most likely, not have to present your x-ray envelope in Atlanta. Have it in your luggage, though. Do have your list and your paper with the doctor's seal on it with your immigration packet (the DO NOT OPEN one), and hand all of that to the immigration officer.

Good luck to you!

You only need to give them the sealed envelope. The documents from your medical are in there. The vaccinations list and record is for you. The x-ray is yours to keep.

Oh, thanks! This was clear and helpful, though I'll have those things with me anyway
