Most went GOOD there. Even tho im not so sure they were so happy to have more immigrants, they way to treat us was nice and smooth.
As soon as i get off the airplane, i told a security man that was there i was transit passenger, i spoke in english but he saw the back of my passport where it shows the country, so he answered me in spanish (im from argentina and we speak spanish), he made me wait in a side, so i didnt have to wait in the main line with all the other ppl that got off the plain, they were hundreds.
Then the customs officer called me. He was very nice, he asked me if we speak english, and i answered only me, but not the kids. Anyhow he spoke with me all time in english, he reviewed all my papers, asked for the embassy pack and drove me thru to inmigration area, while we walk he said to someone there, "hey they are k1 and k2s" so i told him "Come on, u see lot of k1 and k2, dont u?" he said "yes, thats why im telling him we got more"
We entered a room and he gave my papers in hand to another officer, then he went away while greeting us.
The other officer, who i greeted in english, answered me in spanish and asked me to wait on that room while he review my papers, since then all what was said was in spanish. Then he came back to make me fill some part of the i-94 i missed, and asked me to wait again.
It was a long wait somehow. The whole thing since we get into that inmigration room till we left was almost 1 hour and half.
Then he came out with my papers again, he said everything is ok, and gave me some information papers about aos, and gave me back my passports with the i-94 on it and stamps.
They never asked me the x-ray or any other papers. Only my passport, the customs papers they gave me in the plane, and the packs i had from the embassy.
ADVICE: IF U HAVE TO TAKE ANOTHER PLANE AFTER ARRIVE, MAKE SURE U HAVE MORE THAN 2 HOURS FROM ARRIVAL TILL CHECK IN TIME, OR U MAY MISS IT!!!! lot airlines will tell u the connection time u have is ok, but they count it from the arrival to the departure of next plane, and they never tell u the check in is one hour b4 departure or u loose it.
SO JUST MAKE SURE UR TIME IS ENOUGH TO AVOID STRESS
