Am I the only who is annoyed more by the border police's attitude than the actual law? Yes the law was broken, but there was no need to call her a liar or treat her like she just smuggled 3 tonnes of cracks
That kind of thing happens all the time. Do you imagine that government employees feel obligated to be nice in the way that private sector service workers are? The disdain many feel for them is earned. Not all of them are bad but so many are that on the whole they suck.
When someone from another country marries in America they automatically get a petition to come to America so it was a happy ending to those that didn't understand.
That is not the case with an immigration infraction. They still need to be seen as eligible for American Citizenship, which a report of lying to immigration officials will bar for quite a few years. Unfortunately, it is a happy ending long into the couples future.
it's 300 thousands dollar for 8 years education, my friend who is in states paid 175k for 6 years education as international student. so how come you say that, you should not take this much money, you imagine him to have earned this much money for his education by this age. I think americans don't have this much money even after they cross their 50's. LOL, so dont ask someone when they should stop getting help from their parents, so better you take care of your own sh***, little AH.
darshak ramani she’s well off, she said it was from her inheritance. Rich people can send their children to international schools or abroad without those kids needing to work. Rich Asians and even those well to do middle class Asian parent’s prioritizes their children’s education and are willing to pay for their children’s college tuition. They are willing to shed even more money for those hard to pursue courses like law and medicine. It’s a normal thing in my country here in SE Asia that parents pay for their children’s education until college. For those who cant afford it, they apply for scholarships or be a working student.
The way the immigration officer told Anna “not to use that tone with him” - when she was clearly not speaking aggressively - was 100% realistic. It gave me chills.
Ironically, this is what many US citizens complain of regularly in dealings with the police...sometimes, people use their authority to belittle others just to make themselves feel better... Just because they can... Or because they have a predudice against someone from another country, social class, neighbourhood... Or skin colour. Always wrong!
The most ridiculous part about this is the boyfriend who thinks it's a good idea to count his entire engagement plan on the regularity of airport security.
lmfao glad someone else noticed that. NEVER in my life would I set a proposal based on a flight arriving on time and getting thru security; especially international travels
If I get a girl like that, a beautiful and smart doctor, I too will not slip up and leave any chance. I'll marry her as soon as she got back. I dont blame this dude
They wouldn't have cared one bit. In fact, they would have probably gotten satisfaction from your irritation. They would have immediately rejected your VISA, and you'd have found yourself on a plane back to where you started from. Well-played.
I couldn't go to Vegas because I was randomly picked for security check and I had been found guilty of shoplifting 35 years ago. For REAL> I still cannot go to the states. I' have already been to Disneyland before so I didn't care that I can't go there still. I would have had to fill and gather all court records all over 2 towns and then I said hell with it.
This hit painfully close to home. My husband of over two years who lives in Egypt has recently been denied a visa to come to the United States. He already passed his I-130 (green card) and he had his interview at the American Embassy in Cairo a year ago. We just found out that they denied is visa because they said he married me for a green card. No proof, no asking for additional data, nothing. Just a bigoted case worker at the consular office at the American Embassy. And the case will take about two years to come back to the United States where I can appeal the decision. That is our immigration system for those who follow the laws and policies of the United States Of America.
Bro I was 15, traveled without my parents for school, and I was stuck at on office like that, they kept on asking me about forms I knew nothing about, at that moment I truly felt America wasn’t worth all that stress

its actually between 5 and 10 years depending on the violation . On her case because she over stayed for less than 6 months it is 5 years...

At German airport passport control I just started translating for Russian lady standing next to my counter. The officer actually used this to ask more questions instead of refusing my help. I think, especially in such situations it is better to use any help possible. Besides, volunteers do it for free...

In 2013, I went to Scotland to visit friends for a month and when I got back Homeland Security interrogated me and sent me on my way after 4 hours. They were treating me like I had done something wrong, but couldn't tell me what it was. Like someone said in the comments, they're totally power tripping. I have duel citizenship. It felt like they were trying to punish me for that.
Seas _Wallace See, I’m from Czech and study/work in Scotland for over 6 years. Going through the border control is a matter of two minutes just showing my driving license :3
i feel the need to share a trip we undertook to the US and Canada back in 2011and we had to entered US twice LA and Los Vegas- a couple observation: 1) US immigration officer carry guns at all time whilst sitting in a fully enclosed area; 2) always sits/stands on a platform so they are always looking down on you; 3)after informing the immigration officer that I am her husband, the immigration officer asks my wife why she has different surname to me; 4)the immigration officer asks my wife what's our usual address, she misheard and starting to inform him of the local accomodation address we intented to stay. Withing 3 seconds after she started talking, he literally yelled out to her (and i quote directly) "stop talking! listen to what i am asking you carefully, what's your usual address in Australia..." 5) the 2 US immigration officer we encountered did not recipicate any smile or simple pleasantry. 6) the contrast to Australian/canadian/New Zealand/UK... and even the Chinese immigration officers (not known for their smiling faces)we encountered was like heaven and earth.
@@deprogramm Every country have immigration issues. Yours get highlighted more because of your media. And Australian and NZ immigration is really great. They are always nice to people.
If you haven't realized this already, you should always have a lawyer on speed-dial (from the US) or a dead-mans switch when entering the United States as an immigrant. A lawyer is used for everything in today's society because that is the only way to accomplish anything.
Better to just avoid the USA and all its inhabitants. Never fall in love with an American if you are not one yourself. Save yourself a shitload of trauma.
As an international student who has worked and studied in a North American country for 7 years, I relate to her story and frustration in so many levels.
No, but it is a rather common attitude. I have lived in the US-MX border all my life and immigration officers often act in a rude amd condescending maner towards legal immigrants too.
Yes. I had one agent at Port Huron ask me three times if I had any oranges in my vehicle. He got snippy with me when I told him "No, but I have apples, carrots, and celery in the trunk if you want to check them." Who knew there was an illicit Canadian Citrus trade?! On the flip side, on our way back from China in 2013, my (then) wife wrote "...and things" on a customs declaration form. I told her that is a red flag to ANY customs agent and we will be detained; she scoffed, "Do you really think we're supposed to list every single item we're bringing back?" YES. Guess which family was pulled aside for additional questioning? Guess who then threw his incredulous spouse under the CBP bus by saying, "You filled out the form. You tell him what 'and things' means."
Every international student can relate to this story. You never know what is going to happen when you cross through immigration. Even if your paperwork is in order, you will always encounter an officer who does not understand your visa and wants to accuse you of something being wrong. If you are lucky the officers at the secondary inspection are more knowledgeable and will let you pass after a very long wait. This story is so true, any small detail that goes wrong can ruin years of studying and hard work, and close the door to any future job opportunities. This is so sad, as her next step was to either hire an expensive immigration lawyer, or stay in her home country or work somewhere else. The boyfriend would have had to follow her or move on.
That is sucks and a lot of those working in these positions due so from a place of wanting power and authority over others. Border patrol are some of the most disgusting people I have met and this is before all the tension and my understanding of that tension.

Then she was kicked out for a clerical error. She has been stuck in South Korea since 2019. The only place she has to stay in South Korea is with her Uncle’s concubine in a small, rural village.

on the topic of border control I also found it very weird how they ask you so many personal questions. I'm an international student in UK and sometimes when I arrive to heathrow airport they ask more than usual. For instance I've been asked "do you love your parents?", "what grades did you get on your exam? was it stressful?", "do you like living in UK?", "does your family miss you?". I mean that happens when they turn into small talk mode, but gosh these are not appropriate questions for border control, especially when it's such a worrying situation for international student, on the contrary, when I'm passing the control with my european friend, they don't ask him anything.. feels weird
As a retired IRS agent, I can tell you the reality is different. When you get used to being lied to, then the first response to a question is just the one to be proved or disproved. It is a difficult job, so any indication of a factual variance is latched onto and developed. However, a good interviewer will never loose a polite demeanor or lack humanity.

I was on a study trip to New York with my university. I was pulled aside at immigration. I don't know why, maybe because I wore a leather jacket and woolly hat. I was scared I would get separated from my group. Anyway, they asked me some questions and lightly rifled through my belongings, then let me go ahead. But next to me was a guy with brown skin and middle eastern features, but his accent, his smart clothes, his mannerisms and sense of humour were 100% American. They searched through his belongings zealously, even looking in every sock. And this was before 9/11! If this is how they treat their own citizens, I thought, it doesn't make me feel particularly welcome.
It's sad how they treat people, no kindness or compassion. As an American citizen, if I am in love with a man who has a visa, I would marry him just to be safe.
For one who was actually rudely retortd by a TSA officer at LAX and made to go for scondary clearance, and almost missed a connecting flight, this left a sour note.

I am so glad my husband entered the United States to go to college back in 1967, when there was a little more rationality to the process. Yes, I thought they were invasive when he applied for his green card after we got married, the very personal questions they asked, and coming to our apartment and going through our closet (this was 1974) and making a big issue because I had so few clothes (I was big and pregnant and we were poor, so I had only 3 or 4 outfits). LOL. The BS represented in this film totally reflects how much worse things have gotten.
Damn it Omeleto! this is the only channel that has ever made me cry! I honestly thought the boyfriend would be able to do something! I'm still crying😭😭😭😭😭
Similar thing happened to a colleague, she went to Indonesia to visit her parents, 2 weeks later she was in jail because her brother was arrested for some drug charges, and the scumbag fingered her for which she was completely innocent. She will never see her American husband and 3 children again. Once you become an American citizen and you come from a third world crap hole, don't ever go back..
This is exactly the kind of heavy-handed rude treatment that I encountered at an airport in the old Soviet Union in the 1970's, and exactly what I encountered in the USA int the 2000's. It was the last straw that led me to leave the USA. Entering the USA, and even traveling internally, I am treated as if I am a suspect in a crime, or a prisoner. My 80 year old mother was treated the same way. Abusing decent people has become a sick sport for the vermin of the TSA.
Also - what the f - can't you give the viewer some closure. I'd have loved to hear her say yes on the phone, and explaining the situation to her boyfriend. Art needn't leave the denouement to the imagination!

@@aminromero8599 ... they probably did her a favour. If the guy really loves her, he will abandon the USA to start a new life with her. Chances are they will be much better off and much happier in Europe than they could ever be in the USA.
no, that nullifies their decision because she can get married wether if its outside the US or in (i think its outside) and the guy can apply on behalf of her. It'll be a long process, but certainly not 5 years.
@@Ebizzill I wanted someone to confirm this. At first I thought it was a sad ending, but then I realized she can get a visa if she marries him. Can she still get one by this mean even if she had this infraction?
she is pretty, slim well educated and successful (just slavic)she would be better asset to USA than them 3 together...take a look at the office where they work, where they spend long hours ,much more time than people awaiting to be granted access. they need to find some pleasure in life and unfortunately they seek in the dark places appointed by envy .
They move to Europe for a while, he runs out of money and confess that he never wanted to stay outside the states, it takes them a year to challenge the decision, she still gets the five year ban, but cannot work in Europe as a doctor, because her Phd takes a year to be recognized. After six month apart, they fall apart. All that because of a couple of infractions that would be easy to avoid if you don't think you are entitled to hand wave rules away that are designed to catch you with the smallest error to get rid of you.
Jeremy Shiu If they were born in the USA and don't have a passport or visa, or if they're underage and don't have any relatives or friends in other countries. Or maybe they can't afford it or maybe they have someone close to them that's really sick and doesn't want to leave them. A lot of reasons why.

My bro and I went to Canada. Canada said welcome to Canada on the statement we are here to vacation after preesenting our passports. Upon return to the US at Niagra Falls, our passports were consfiscated, and told where to park the vehicle. Upon entering an office we were told to be seated. The wait was a while. We were told we were not detained, yet passports were not returned. Again we asked are we detained. The answer was no. No info as to why we were "waiting" upon multiple requests. Finally passports were returned and we were free to leave. Bor was a retired lifer Marine and Gulf War vet. Both of us over sixty. My personal feel is all about power and control. Until these personnel are videoed abuses will occur. I have learned to fear my government. The government that is to protect. Agents of my government abused me.

I think the only issue is that she has a boyfriend in the US, but apart from that with a profession as a doctor and a large inheritance from her parents she could live a great life in Czech Republic. Probably a better life in a nicer house than she could in the US. It makes more sense for her American boyfriend to move to the Czech Republic.
Love it. My last experience with US customs made this pale into insignificance. I've been to the US on business 3 times before, all post 9/11 but "that vile twit that can't stop tweeting", has made the US a very unfriendly place this last 2 years, even for Brits like me.

I had a similar run-around some years ago. I'd just started a job with a US company in the UK. They sent me to the US for a training programme. Immigration staff were rude and arrogant and for a while it looked like I would be turned around. In the end it turned out ok and my visit was a delight. In my 3 weeks there I met lots of people from all over the country. It's true, they don't have a clue what irony is. They get very defensive, even angry when confronted with anything that contradicts their mind-set. In many ways they can be very nieave. Their trust seems to be only skin deep. Everything is black and white to them It took a while to recognise this, then I enjoyed myself. Returning through the airport I had a gun pointed at me through the x-ray machine as I'd put my house keys in my pocket!I'd love to live there!

Holy crap, people. Americans are NOT opposed to immigrants. We are opposed to ILLEGAL immigrants, meaning they BROKE THE LAW. Please stop regurgitating that far-left nonsense.

Yeah... because America is one country. The EU is a confederation of nations, so you're comparing apples and oranges. As noted above, everyone who is here *legally* is allowed to move around freely. And yes, we are allowed to do "whatever the hell we want" when it comes to OUR laws and OUR nation. I'll bet you get pretty salty if/when Americans try to tell you about how your country is a terrible place and what laws you should change. It works both ways, buddy.
I'm an immigration attorney and this is a very familiar fact pattern to me. The lovebirds were crazy not to consult with immigration counsel to figure out the best way for the woman to immigrate to the USA legally. A little intelligent planning would have averted this ugly fact pattern from playing out as it did. Also, the U.S. boyfriend planning a proposal at the airport was madness. Finally, when someone is placed in "secondary inspection" as this woman was, there is no right to counsel.
At the first why its not alowed to go to USA just like that? if it is so free country and america was made by diffirent people from whole europe and other countires with thier own cultures. Litleraly they saying that thier own kin cannot go to america. For me America was always like to be citizen of the world, now its more like soviet union.
@@artschankler6634 I don't think that's the issue. If someone comes to the USA on a visitor visa and expresses an intent to marry, the officers are suspicious immediately about non-immigrant intent, i.e. will she stay permanently and just apply for a green card? There's actually a specific visa for this, called a K-1. "It's complicated." I don't defend our dysfunctional immigration system. I simply try to tell people what the pitfalls are and how to navigate them.
@@Redhand1949 Yeah, but thats not what they said was the issue in the video. They said that she had come in on a student visa and worked over the summer, which is not allowed under the student visa. But she worked outside the US, which I do not believe is a violation of the student visa provisions, even if for an American cmpany.
The actors were truly masterful. What a powerful short film. This is an accurate portrayal of the dynamics inside a typical U.S. Immigration office. The power-trip exhibited by some of the officers is utterly revolting. Most of them are completely void of even an ounce of professionalism.
The end is clear: They can't marry in the US now. She can't leave the airport and she has to go back for at least 5 years. They basically ruined her relationship and her career in the US.
I'm in the US on a F1 visa it's been 8 years. Immigration office is very strict, ask me all sorts of questions every time I re-enter the country and when re-apply for the visa. This is one of the nightmares many people on a F1 visa have, because we KNOW it does happen.
Sometimes I feel like, whether or not you're allowed into a country depends on which immigration officer you meet that day, and what their mood is like. I was once refused entry into into Singapore, for reasons I still don't know to this day. I was living and working as an expat in nearby Malaysia, and all I had wanted to do was cross into Singapore for the weekend to watch Scottish rock band Travis live. I had purchased the ticket before leaving, had more than enough money to spend for the weekend, had visited Singapore several times, never before denied entry, and was carrying a powerful British passport. But, all that meant nothing to the morose immigration officer who never even made eye contact with me. It was like he had made up his mind very early on that he wouldn't let me in, no matter what C'est la vie, I guess. 😥
Sometimes - especially in the US - they just don't like how you look. I am a US citizen, born and raised, 12 yrs in the Army, and multiple times when going through customs I've had to suffer through long question and answer sessions. My guess is that comments like this one get me put on a list.
This isn't even that bad compared to many who get put in detention for years because the US lawmakers dictated that humans have no rights at the border.
I will never understand why people, specially from Europe, insist on moving or visiting a country where they are clearly not welcome. You are welcome in Germany, there's better healthcare, better education, better public transportation and it's safer.
Am I the only who is annoyed more by the border police's attitude than the actual law? Yes the law was broken, but there was no need to call her a liar or treat her like she just smuggled 3 tonnes of cracks
That kind of thing happens all the time. Do you imagine that government employees feel obligated to be nice in the way that private sector service workers are? The disdain many feel for them is earned. Not all of them are bad but so many are that on the whole they suck.

The way the immigration officer told Anna “not to use that tone with him” - when she was clearly not speaking aggressively - was 100% realistic. It gave me chills.
Ironically, this is what many US citizens complain of regularly in dealings with the police...sometimes, people use their authority to belittle others just to make themselves feel better... Just because they can... Or because they have a predudice against someone from another country, social class, neighbourhood... Or skin colour. Always wrong!
I was surprised they had a black character in the movie that showed him with an attitude. I expected a white male with a Maga mug on his desk.

Understanding anger is one response but showing them footage of practicing with a Casak saber might get more respect!
It’s not a matter that she’s patient or not, you cannot lose it in those circumstances. They have all the winning cards.
Then you would have spent many nights in jail until they made sure you understand who u dealing with
They wouldn't have cared one bit. In fact, they would have probably gotten satisfaction from your irritation.
They would have immediately rejected your VISA, and you'd have found yourself on a plane back to where you started from.

This hit painfully close to home. My husband of over two years who lives in Egypt has recently been denied a visa to come to the United States. He already passed his I-130 (green card) and he had his interview at the American Embassy in Cairo a year ago. We just found out that they denied is visa because they said he married me for a green card. No proof, no asking for additional data, nothing. Just a bigoted case worker at the consular office at the American Embassy. And the case will take about two years to come back to the United States where I can appeal the decision. That is our immigration system for those who follow the laws and policies of the United States Of America.

Yep. Absolute sh!t

1) US immigration officer carry guns at all time whilst sitting in a fully enclosed area;
2) always sits/stands on a platform so they are always looking down on you;
3)after informing the immigration officer that I am her husband, the immigration officer asks my wife why she has different surname to me;
4)the immigration officer asks my wife what's our usual address, she misheard and starting to inform him of the local accomodation address we intented to stay. Withing 3 seconds after she started talking, he literally yelled out to her (and i quote directly) "stop talking! listen to what i am asking you carefully, what's your usual address in Australia..."
5) the 2 US immigration officer we encountered did not recipicate any smile or simple pleasantry.

If you haven't realized this already, you should always have a lawyer on speed-dial (from the US) or a dead-mans switch when entering the United States as an immigrant. A lawyer is used for everything in today's society because that is the only way to accomplish anything.

As an international student who has worked and studied in a North American country for 7 years, I relate to her story and frustration in so many levels.
There’s only 2, no need to be coy.
For those that don't know, yes, that IS how ridiculous immigration can be!
unless you are from Mexico
I didn't like that officer's attitude. "Don't take that tone with me, miss smarty-pants!" Is that in their protocol?
No, but it is a rather common attitude. I have lived in the US-MX border all my life and immigration officers often act in a rude amd condescending maner towards legal immigrants too.
Sounds like someone let their 7 year old get hold of the script for a moment.
citogal : You BETYA!
clray123 . The problem is that sometimes your career/future/even life depends on them.
Yes. I had one agent at Port Huron ask me three times if I had any oranges in my vehicle. He got snippy with me when I told him "No, but I have apples, carrots, and celery in the trunk if you want to check them." Who knew there was an illicit Canadian Citrus trade?!
On the flip side, on our way back from China in 2013, my (then) wife wrote "...and things" on a customs declaration form. I told her that is a red flag to ANY customs agent and we will be detained; she scoffed, "Do you really think we're supposed to list every single item we're bringing back?" YES. Guess which family was pulled aside for additional questioning? Guess who then threw his incredulous spouse under the CBP bus by saying, "You filled out the form. You tell him what 'and things' means."
Every international student can relate to this story. You never know what is going to happen when you cross through immigration. Even if your paperwork is in order, you will always encounter an officer who does not understand your visa and wants to accuse you of something being wrong. If you are lucky the officers at the secondary inspection are more knowledgeable and will let you pass after a very long wait. This story is so true, any small detail that goes wrong can ruin years of studying and hard work, and close the door to any future job opportunities. This is so sad, as her next step was to either hire an expensive immigration lawyer, or stay in her home country or work somewhere else. The boyfriend would have had to follow her or move on.
This sends a pretty clear message about American immigration.
That is sucks and a lot of those working in these positions due so from a place of wanting power and authority over others. Border patrol are some of the most disgusting people I have met and this is before all the tension and my understanding of that tension.

on the topic of border control I also found it very weird how they ask you so many personal questions. I'm an international student in UK and sometimes when I arrive to heathrow airport they ask more than usual. For instance I've been asked "do you love your parents?", "what grades did you get on your exam? was it stressful?", "do you like living in UK?", "does your family miss you?". I mean that happens when they turn into small talk mode, but gosh these are not appropriate questions for border control, especially when it's such a worrying situation for international student, on the contrary, when I'm passing the control with my european friend, they don't ask him anything.. feels weird
wtf?!??! "do you love your parents" is a real question?!? huh??
people who have a bit of power often become jerks and abuse their power.
As a retired IRS agent, I can tell you the reality is different. When you get used to being lied to, then the first response to a question is just the one to be proved or disproved. It is a difficult job, so any indication of a factual variance is latched onto and developed. However, a good interviewer will never loose a polite demeanor or lack humanity.
It's our policies like this that make me embarrassed to be American.
American policies aren't closely as bad as many other countries.
That doesnt mean that it's still not bad. Changes should still be made.
These laws exist to keep our country safe. I would rather have have a few annoyed people than a country full of terrorists.
Sheait I understand where you're coming from, but what ends up happening most of the time is that lots of innocent people get their lives torn apart while terrorists still figure out a way in.

I was on a study trip to New York with my university. I was pulled aside at immigration. I don't know why, maybe because I wore a leather jacket and woolly hat. I was scared I would get separated from my group. Anyway, they asked me some questions and lightly rifled through my belongings, then let me go ahead. But next to me was a guy with brown skin and middle eastern features, but his accent, his smart clothes, his mannerisms and sense of humour were 100% American. They searched through his belongings zealously, even looking in every sock. And this was before 9/11!

Upon return to the US at Niagra Falls, our passports were consfiscated, and told where to park the vehicle. Upon entering an office we were told to be seated. The wait was a while. We were told we were not detained, yet passports were not returned. Again we asked are we detained. The answer was no. No info as to why we were "waiting" upon multiple requests. Finally passports were returned and we were free to leave. Bor was a retired lifer Marine and Gulf War vet. Both of us over sixty. My personal feel is all about power and control.

Love it. My last experience with US customs made this pale into insignificance. I've been to the US on business 3 times before, all post 9/11 but "that vile twit that can't stop tweeting", has made the US a very unfriendly place this last 2 years, even for Brits like me.
Peter Sobocki so when did you go to the us? Before or after 2 years ago?
@Peter Sobocki Do you mean DT?
Peter Sobocki : Never travelled anywhere since leaving school in 74. Did go on two school cruises at Júnior School. Worst thing about those two trips was the big headed, 'WE ARE' brashness of the yank kids aboard. Am 61 now, was 10/11 then. Recall it well.
I was literally about to cry. This was heartbreaking
I had a similar run-around some years ago. I'd just started a job with a US company in the UK. They sent me to the US for a training programme. Immigration staff were rude and arrogant and for a while it looked like I would be turned around. In the end it turned out ok and my visit was a delight. In my 3 weeks there I met lots of people from all over the country. It's true, they don't have a clue what irony is. They get very defensive, even angry when confronted with anything that contradicts their mind-set. In many ways they can be very nieave. Their trust seems to be only skin deep. Everything is black and white to them It took a while to recognise this, then I enjoyed myself. Returning through the airport I had a gun pointed at me through the x-ray machine as I'd put my house keys in my pocket!I'd love to live there!
I lost my visa exactly this way. I have been trying to apply for more than two years now and I didn’t know the five year thing. Man, what a way to find out, this really made me tear up.
Why would anyone want to move to the states
HAha . . . ask the people who are still applying for green cards . . .
i want to move to the US when im older because its pretty much my only feasable chance to become a martian colonist, im brittish though so i have a mild advantage but its still disgusting that american leaders are so zenophobic to immigrants even though they were originally brittish immigrants and spanish explorers themselves
@Stoner Jesus - I don't want to. So it's not anyone.
Holy crap, people. Americans are NOT opposed to immigrants. We are opposed to ILLEGAL immigrants, meaning they BROKE THE LAW. Please stop regurgitating that far-left nonsense. American citizens should write to their Congressmen if they want to see things changed. As it is right now, many in the USA still believe in the rule of law and not "muh feeeeelings."
Barbed Two you won't be able to come. SpaceX and NASA Only hire American workers for there type of work with few exceptions. Go to the European agency lmao
As a foregner who lived in the US and love the country the customs officers are taught to be unhuman. Its degrading and sad.
who else reads the comments while watching the video to kinda know what to expect?
Alexa i watch it before the vid so that I can find out that it's not creepy
I do it alot, because if I get bored with it, or I can't figure out what's happening I will scroll down to try and find a reason to stay with it. Otherwise, I'm out...comms do seem to be the deal maker or breaker. But, hey that's just me.
i watched this just because im from Czech Republic and i wanted to hear English speaking people speak Czech.
These Omeleto videos are incredible. In real life, this episode probably takes place every day.
Please post part 2 where they get married and live happily ever after!!
They can't marry in the US now. She can't leave the airport and she has to go back for at least 5 years. They basically ruined her relationship and her career in the US.
Since when was paperwork more important than morals and the saving of young children? Oh, yeah, since we got to the US, and they seem able to do whatever the hell they want.
Funny Man and which country does their laws differently?
Jeremy Shiu everywhere within the EU has free passage to EU citizens, regardless of nationality.
Well of course they do, America has free passage to American citizens too, what's your point?
Adam B. The Eu allows free passage to citizens of a huge range of countries, whereas the us allows passage to only one. That's the difference.
Yeah... because America is one country. The EU is a confederation of nations, so you're comparing apples and oranges. As noted above, everyone who is here *legally* is allowed to move around freely. And yes, we are allowed to do "whatever the hell we want" when it comes to OUR laws and OUR nation. I'll bet you get pretty salty if/when Americans try to tell you about how your country is a terrible place and what laws you should change. It works both ways, buddy.
The translator part is very true. At hospitals were only allowed to use certified translators so there’s no false information and HIPPA violations.
This stuff really happens. I have been through this.
I'm an immigration attorney and this is a very familiar fact pattern to me. The lovebirds were crazy not to consult with immigration counsel to figure out the best way for the woman to immigrate to the USA legally. A little intelligent planning would have averted this ugly fact pattern from playing out as it did. Also, the U.S. boyfriend planning a proposal at the airport was madness. Finally, when someone is placed in "secondary inspection" as this woman was, there is no right to counsel.
At the first why its not alowed to go to USA just like that? if it is so free country and america was made by diffirent people from whole europe and other countires with thier own cultures. Litleraly they saying that thier own kin cannot go to america. For me America was always like to be citizen of the world, now its more like soviet union.
@@MrBalrogos Exactly, well said.
Surely you know then that working overseas for an American company does not constitute working in the US or violate any visa restrictions.
@@artschankler6634 I don't think that's the issue. If someone comes to the USA on a visitor visa and expresses an intent to marry, the officers are suspicious immediately about non-immigrant intent, i.e. will she stay permanently and just apply for a green card? There's actually a specific visa for this, called a K-1. "It's complicated." I don't defend our dysfunctional immigration system. I simply try to tell people what the pitfalls are and how to navigate them.
@@Redhand1949 Yeah, but thats not what they said was the issue in the video. They said that she had come in on a student visa and worked over the summer, which is not allowed under the student visa. But she worked outside the US, which I do not believe is a violation of the student visa provisions, even if for an American cmpany.
The actors were truly masterful. What a powerful short film. This is an accurate portrayal of the dynamics inside a typical U.S. Immigration office. The power-trip exhibited by some of the officers is utterly revolting. Most of them are completely void of even an ounce of professionalism.
Am I the only one that’s annoyed by how they always leave every video on a cliffhanger?
ROTFFLMAO No Lilia it annoyed me too! LIKE HELL!
It's fiction, you moron.
The end is clear: They can't marry in the US now. She can't leave the airport and she has to go back for at least 5 years. They basically ruined her relationship and her career in the US.
@Ran Ng I rather believe he will understand how entitled she acts and that is not a good fit in the long run
you know it's a good short film when it genuinely gets you pissed off about something
I'm in the US on a F1 visa it's been 8 years. Immigration office is very strict, ask me all sorts of questions every time I re-enter the country and when re-apply for the visa. This is one of the nightmares many people on a F1 visa have, because we KNOW it does happen.
OMG watching this is like waiting in line at the DMV. Immersive film making ugh!
Sometimes I feel like, whether or not you're allowed into a country depends on which immigration officer you meet that day, and what their mood is like.
I was once refused entry into into Singapore, for reasons I still don't know to this day. I was living and working as an expat in nearby Malaysia, and all I had wanted to do was cross into Singapore for the weekend to watch Scottish rock band Travis live.
I had purchased the ticket before leaving, had more than enough money to spend for the weekend, had visited Singapore several times, never before denied entry, and was carrying a powerful British passport.
But, all that meant nothing to the morose immigration officer who never even made eye contact with me. It was like he had made up his mind very early on that he wouldn't let me in, no matter what
C'est la vie, I guess. 😥
Sometimes - especially in the US - they just don't like how you look. I am a US citizen, born and raised, 12 yrs in the Army, and multiple times when going through customs I've had to suffer through long question and answer sessions. My guess is that comments like this one get me put on a list.
this is almost so real that it should be a short documentary
This isn't even that bad compared to many who get put in detention for years because the US lawmakers dictated that humans have no rights at the border.
This is America
Don't catch you tripping na
I will never understand why people, specially from Europe, insist on moving or visiting a country where they are clearly not welcome. You are welcome in Germany, there's better healthcare, better education, better public transportation and it's safer.
Most Americans welcome legal immigrants with no problem
Nobody is welcomes anywhere I guess. And it shouldn’t be this way.
It costs nothing to be kind, yet people are so horrible to each other. This is why the world is so horrible because people just can’t learn to be kind
