Hi

 

I am travelling on Sunday ( Excited ) lol

 

Just wanted to know, if I need to take any documents to show them at Immigration clearance ?? except Travel documents obviously

 

Thanks in advance

Bring everything you had in support of your visa (job letter, property or rental, return ticket etc) in your carry-on. You probably won’t need it, but if they ask for proof of plans to return home you have it.

Hi

I would really appreciate some help regarding US Visit Visa please.

My Wife ( British National ) is going to USA for a Conference in San Francisco and staying there for couple of weeks, so me and my daughter ( British National )are planning to go with her as I already booked holidays from work. My understanding is they both can get ESTA but I need to apply for a Visit Visa. The hotel is booked under her name from work so I need to know what documents do I need also do I need to tell them on a form I have FLR FP Visa and I overstayed my visa previously ??
Documents I am attaching

Hotel Booking ( Wife's name )
Payslip
Bank Statement
Work Letter about my job
Biomatrics residence card
Passport
national ID Card ( Pakistan )
Council Tax

Do I need any other documents ??


Thanks

If you already overstayed on a visa, that will be a automatic travel ban into the USA. I am a British born citizen and I always traveled to USA on a B1/B2 even though I did not need to after 9/11.

If I was you I would seek some legal advice.

Hey thanks for your information, to let you know I have overstayed my Student VISA in UK and not USA.

 

Anyway went through Custom and Border protection without any problem, all they asked was purpose of visit and how long I am visiting for.

 

Now I need to travel back again in October for 10 days, I just follow the same procedure, keep my documents with me just in case and be honest

 

 

Thanks for all your help.

Your all good then, I guess it's the UK Border Force you have to have worry about? They can be very arrogant towards non Brits at times. I am glad all went well for you but remember afew visits a year to the USA can raise the suspicions of homeland security customs officers.

Yeah your rite, first time when I went through border force at Manchester airport after coming back from Dubai I was stopped and they gone through few checks but since than I have travelled well over 20 countries on Pakistani Passport but never had any trouble, I always keep a spare  Landing cards with me so I always be the first one in international queue and its always seems like a peace of cake lol.

 

This time I am attending a conference for my work and I will have invitations and all the relevant papers from work.

 

Thanks for your prompt response.

At heathrow it’s very common... We flew into Newcastle once and they were super friendly, I think it was a novelty for them - we were the only ones in the non-brit/EU line!
