I know what you are saying. Experience this every time I go to Costa Rica rica. I swear four planes arrive right before we do and it takes forever to clear customs.
To your second point, I booked the seats right by the door so we will be first off the plane.
Thank you for the response.
Thank you for the feedback, you guys are the best I found a flight with a 4 hr layover. If all goes smoothly I can spoil the wife in the airport lounge.
Good morning all,
I am looking at booking a flight for my wife to enter the US in Sept. I am trying to gauge how long of a layover we will need coming in. I have asked various CBP officers and some say it takes ten minutes for the first entry and others say an hour and change. What say you?
I would be flying with my wife and right now the flight I normally take is a little over a two hr layover in Atlanta.
I just looked at the marriage certificate and it says Sept 16. I know it took a while for it to get filed, so I wasn't sure which date it was. Thank you for the feedback.
Signed paperwork for our civil marriage Sept 16, 2023. I talked with the wifey and she said she doesn't want to wait and we can do paperwork in two years if all goes according to plans.
Got word today that my wife's interview got pushed back three weeks. It got me to thinking about the CR1 vs IR1. I understand that the IR1 is granted if you enter after your two yr anniversary. My question is this, we signed marital paperwork on Sept 16. Our paperwork was filed and received with USCIS a month and a half later. Would they use the November date or the Sept date?
Just got our interview date for the embassy in Costa Rica, June 26. Went from absolutely nothing happening for 16 months to things flying now. We are super excited. Best of luck to all of you waiting.
Email this morning, we have taken action on your case. USCIS website says it is being actively reviewed as of March 4th now, not November anymore. Something might actually be happening. Holy cow.
