Hello,
I am so glad to have this clip.
Because that means the process of getting into USA with our CR1 / IR1 spouse immigrant visa is
almost over.
And for the first time not having to book a return ticket
You can buy a One-way ticket.
and return whenever you want.
Does it sound cool?
Before entering USA
Pay $ 220 for the green card fee according to the documents provided by the embassy.
And check it completely mailing address
According to the USCIS website we will receive a green card within 120 days,
but when entering the USA port, the officer informs that within 6 months,
i will keep updating after i got it
Getting to the airport before departure 2 hours
all passengers drop by Gate 2,
pass the screening point at the entrance, measure the temperature and check in, "We won" app.
then walk to check-in at the counter of the airline.
The documents that must be shown at the check-in counter are
1. Passport
2. Certificate of COVID-19 testing 72 hours prior to departure which issued by hospital.
3. This is important. they will not let you get on the plane.
3. USCIS immigrant fee paper from the US Embassy.
the officer will look at the number, I do not know why but they will ask for.
after that the airline staff will let us fill out.
1. Address In the United States
and 2. Inquiries related to COVID test
This one, we tick the box of negative results and sign the date on.
then returned the boarding pass and passport to us
Then walk up and move to the checkpoint.
The first sing i saw was no any passengers
shocked
after completing the checkpoint. Go to the passport check point
There are no passengers at all.
It takes less than 5 minutes on each point
the way to the boarding gate
only you and me,haha
Our flight had 12 passengers
staff will let people board by group.
each group only 1-2 people
Window seat will boarding first.
As for food and drinks served normally
a small change is
Eat when you wakes up at any time.
For meal, the staff will let you choose from 2 sets
then tea and coffee. During that time, there was another sandwich
everyone had to wear a surgical mask at all times.
The atmosphere inside the plane is comfortable
everybody got one row seat is very quiet and private.
Going to the bathroom doesn't have to wait.
Saw staff walking to take care of it very often
The second flight from Japan to San Francisco.
The passengers are about 20-30 people, not many
everybody got one row seat.
When arrived San Francisco Have to pick up the luggage
to pass the customs and Boarder protection officer.
the officials asked:
1. What is the purpose of coming USA?
2. Have more than $ 10,000 in cash with you? (Missed speak in Thai)
When we report that We hold IR1 visa,
they the officer will put my passport in a box with a lock.
Follow the staff to other officer on the far right
There will be chairs to wait there.
At this checkpoint, the staff will ask again
1. Enter USA for what purpose?
We then answered that Come here with a marriage visa IR1
2. What is your husband's name?
3. What date do you get married?
4. The address for mailing the green card is ..... right?
After that, he said
5. The green card will be mailing to your address within 6 months
Here informed within 6 months
according to document is 120 days
as I read from internet is within 1 month
i will keep updating after i got it
Then he returned my passport box, and tell me to followed the green line letter A.
and handed it to the other officer.
This checkpoint asked a lot.
1. What do you do in the United States?
2. Do you bring pork meat, food items?
3. What seeds do you bring to plant here?
4. Do you bring any lemongrass come in?
5. Do you bring mama instant noodles with you?
i am not cooking.
So my answered is nothing
After that, put the bag into the inspection machine.
When the examination is complete, there are no problems, then passed
go to all the question.
Thai people might bring ingredients And Mama instant noodle often,
I recommend that if you come here with this type of visa
Do not bring too many things with you.
I'm afraid there is a problem after
the percentage that we will be called for inspection is very high
When arrived in USA, quarantine yourself at home. also according to the regulations of each state again
The rest is just waiting for a green card and SSN mailing to your home address.
traveling during Covid-19 spread
has both advantages and disadvantages,
the advantages are
very few people at the airport. Few stores open
service staff more than passengers
The feeling of being a VIP guest.
All service staffs there Prepared service To serve us only,
the downside is that it increases the process.
Must pass the screening point
and register
for testing before traveling
Keep social distancing
Wear a face mask all the time
Okay.
We already passed.
See you next video.
Good luck to everyone.
Bye bye.
