I fly through Chicago all the time.  You have to pick up your luggage after leaving immigration and take it to American for next flight.  

Normally, but they went to check and American Airlines thought he was already on his flight and checked it for him. People make mistakes and don’t follow the rules, it happens.

I'm not convinced it was actually CBP that called.

Have you heard what happened?

Wishing you peace during these tough times. Filter out the negativity and prioritize your mental health, I wouldn't wish this situation on anybody no matter the outcome. ❤️

Ok. Please don't beat yourself up about what has happened, it's not your fault. Sometimes in life unfortunate things happen. This is alot to digest so please take sometime to talk to someone about everything you're feeling. Don't rush to make a decision either way.

"You nag more than you should" doesn't sound at all like something CBP would ever say, lol.

OP didn’t say CBP said that. It’s her expressing regret for nagging her fiancé and saying things she didn’t mean on WhatsApp.

 

Regardless, fake or not, sounds like a toxic relationship, and probably wouldn’t make for the best marriage…

People with passport from certain countries and with valid visas to US, Australia and Canada (and I think Schengen visa), do not need transit visas at heathrow. Someone with Nigerian passport with no valid visas to said countries would need it.

Maybe OP should ask him for CBP annotation on his PP because I'm sure something was written on it. 

 

Additionally, OP can call embassy and be like "why was my K-1 denied entry?" I'm think embassy can get you an answer right off the bat because it's already in the system. 

 

Armed with this information, OP can then call beneficiary and ask his side to see if they match.

Immigration journey is not: fast, for the faint at heart, easy, cheap, for the impatient nor right away. If more than 50% of this applies to you, best get off the bus.

OP, any updates?   What happened?

It’s barely Tuesday. Running over to publish an update on VJ a few minutes or hours after he arrives and she gets a hold of him should rightly be very low on her priority list.

Just another random guy from the internet with an opinion, although usually backed by data!

She can ask her senator/congress person to make an inquiry at the Lagos Consulate. It's a 50/50 chance for  Lagos to reply to petitioner emails but they always reply to emails from senator/congress person.
