  1. OK I think I need to go to an Enrolment Center/EoA, but the EoA was closed when I arrived in Logan at 11pm. That kind of explains it, and I think the CBP agent was misinformed. Helpful thread here if anyone comes across this issue.
  2. Thanks for your reply! The Boston Terminal E Arrivals area is an enrolment center (where I originally got GE as I entered on a previous tourist trip). I guess that's why I'm confused that he would say it was fine since there's that dual role! I'll try giving them a call though.
  3. Hi all, I have Global Entry on my UK passport. Became a US permanent resident and got my GC in March. Went on a short international holiday & came back through Boston earlier this month. Asked the staff member next to the GE line if I could use it with a new GC, when it was tied to my UK passport. He, as I suspected, said no, so I lined up in the (long!) citizen/resident line. When it was my turn I asked the agent to tie my GE to my GC and he was confused and said I could have just gone through the GE line -- I tried to explain about it possibly recording a wrong entry type etc but he was insistent that I could just use GE - "if you have GE, you have it" was his direct quote. Was he correct? I'm reading that you scan your GC at the GE kiosk, so I feel like he was incorrect but I didn't know the right terminology/argument at the time to get him to do it. Or have things changed? Can I just use the GE line next time and get them to sort it out? Thanks!
  4. I am shortly moving over to the US on a CR1 visa. My UK company has an office in the US. They are putting me on a US contract for tax & benefit purposes - to start immediately after I move - but I will continue to work remotely for the UK office as a secondee. My salary will be paid in USD by the US office but they will charge it back to my UK team. The two offices are part of the same organisation but different legal entities. Do I need to fill out a P85? My HR team said "most probably" but wanted to see if anyone had any experience with this.
  5. It seems explicitly because of the strikes - this was the advisory email but she didn't post a pic of the cancellation email.
  6. Not to alarm anyone, but someone in the FB group I'm in - for UK applicants of US spousal visas - had their CR1 interview cancelled in November due to tube and train strikes. Her interview was on 10th Nov and she received an email on 4th Nov advising her to re-schedule (just advisory), and then she received another email on 7th Nov officially cancelling, so it was quite short notice. She was able to re-arrange it for 14th Nov (this was based on embassy availability). The group is this one if you want to join and see the post. To your point, though, can't see cancellations for other strike days so it may depend on the severity of the strike and they could still call the strike off completely.
  7. I believe that in order to reschedule you need to let your original interview date lapse (i.e. don't go) and then you will be able to reschedule it on a selected date. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/Supplements/Supplements_by_Post/LND-London.html Interview Guidelines Rescheduling or cancelling your interview If you are unable to attend your appointment, please go to ais.usvisa-info.com/en-gb/iv to select a new appointment date after the date of your NVC scheduled interview has passed. There may be a significant wait before the next available appointment, so please attempt to attend the date already assigned.
