So I’m flying in September to see my boyfriend (from Germany) before he leaves for deployment in December. I’m planning on staying for 3 weeks(can’t longer since I have to work and used up all my vacation days) I’ve read many things about people being denied access. Now I’m worried a bit.
I have the needed documents I need to have including lil things like my lease and my work contract to make sure if they were to ask that I can show them I’m not planning on staying. Also wouldn’t stay seeing as I just got promoted at the job k work at.

Now the hotel I’m stayin in is booked and being paid by my partner. That’s also something I’m kinda worried about that they might deny me access.

I hope it makes sense what I’m typing out.

Thanks in advance for any help

You should be fine as you are bringing plenty of evidence showing your ties to Germany.  Also remember, you only have to answer the questions from the CBP officer truthfully, there is no requirement to add information that is not asked for.

 

Good Luck!

I don’t see any issues. You have a relatively short visit and seem to have good ties to Germany.

Verify that your partner has put your name on the reservation as American hotels are strict about identification. Your name must be on the reservation and you must identify yourself if your partner isn't there with you to check in. 

Reading is what? Fun-da-men-tal!

He booked the hotel in his name but is checking in and staying in there with me for the time I’m there. Is that a problem then?

No, that should be fine. As long as the name on the reservation is matched with the person identifying themselves at check-in, you're good.

Okays that’s good. You had me worried xD because he was very strong about booking and paying for the hotel since I paid for the flights, but if it’s because of identification then he’ll be there anyway
