Too add to that they are much more relaxed and friendly at DFW at your Port of Entry vs places like up north or the west coast.

I know i told her about immigration at LAX, i am skeptical about flying into there, she wants to be able to stop and state borders and take picts of the welcome to ( whatever state ) to start her journey of life here, even though she will see the country with me as a truck driver.  She has one advantage over others that immigrate she will see the USA clearly coast to coast.

My wife has entered through Immigration (most recently) SFO, ORD, and several times at LAX.   Never had a problem.And those were all on a (probably more suspicious) tourist visa.  I doubt an immigrant would have a problem.

We went through LAX on K-1 entry. No issues.  10 minutes, and most of it was the officer and me chatting.

LAX is a strange place for pinays entering and exiting the country. 

 

Many years ago they pulled aside my buddies gf who had just arrived and had her crying and trying to convince her to return to Philippines, at LAX they CBP told her he had a record of fighting, she said they picked her and another girl and had them both crying, LAX was her POE and she was going to catch a flight to DFW to meet her fiancee at the time.

 

10 years or so we were getting on PAL airlines in LAX, catching a flight to Manila.  It was at the departure gate after you show the ticket agent your passport and ticket to enter the plane, CBP was actually hiding inside the walkway ramp to the plane and harassing and asking pinay questions like: How long were you in USA, Were you working, etc.  It really angered me ,I told them to leave them alone, they are trying to go home and board the plane.  It was 3 CBP agents and they were randomly pulling them over.  Never seen anything like it since

 

Just a FYI

I despise LAX, it looks like a 3rd world country airport. SFO is so much nicer, cleaner and less crowded and more friendly.

My wife got that tour about 2 weeks after she came to the USA. We flew into NC to spend time with my family and get married then 10 days later we drove cross country to CA so I could start my new job outside of Los Angeles.

The Customs agents in the jetway for the PAL flights are there fishing for passengers carrying over $10,000 undeclared cash.    FilAm passengers are profiled as sometimes having a tendency to transport undeclared cash.   You will also see Customs from time to time in the jetway on China bound flights.

 

LAX is where I most frequently enter the US and I never had much trouble there.   Immigration there may not be the most happy smiley bunch but they mostly process people through there hassle free.  I could see where changing terminals for a connection flight at LAX could be confusing for a new immigrant.

Yep, even I was hassled on the jetway on my one flight using PAL.
