We arrived on the overnight flight from Colombia - Avianca, which arrives around 6 am. We were among the few on the US Citizen line. I pulled my husband on the US Citizen line with me and had no trouble. I was welcome back and my husband was welcomed for the first time.
Once it came to processing the immigration paper there were no harrasment, but actually i would say very interactions/interest. I had mentioned that we had been married for two years, and he should be receiving an IR instead of the CR as stated on the VISA stamp. However, she did not pay attention, and did not want to help to change the status. I went over to the original POE officer, and they(POE Officer & Stamp Lady) had a little argument Thanks to the POE Officer, the stamp lady was forced to act upon our request. The lady stamping made a few changes on the computer to reflect the IR status. We didn't get the SS card automatically mailed as we noted on the original application. We had to go to the SS office and apply for a SS card for my husband.
I recommend you travel with your spouses. My husband was a bit nervous, since he had never traveled to the US. He wouldn't have looked carefully at the stamp.
Good luck on your journey!
