![[Customs & Immigration Questions & Answers, Interview at the Airport] English Conversation](/img/n.gif)
When I came back from Mexico to the US, I got the secondary inspection treatment. I had to declare everything I brought back, they went through my luggage, swabbed everything for drugs and explosive residue and they took my passport and ran my travel history and any criminalities. They also asked why I travel a lot. Similar things happened when I was in Abu Dhabi and Dubai
The same happened to me in august 2022. I'm from Italy, I was 23, first time in the Us (JFK) and I was alone. But honestly the officer there asked me only few questions, like what my hotel was and how long I was going to stay. Very nice officer.
It is a wrong idea that they pick persons randomly. They have an algorithm which predicts the probability of you being a legitimate traveler, using the answers you gave at the initial visa checking place and your passport info. It is a simple logistic regression algorithm. If you are a single, male, 20-40 years old, traveling not for business you have a high chance of being subjected to secondary inspection.
Don’t feel bad they do this all the time and often to their own citizens.
I hated secondary inspection. As soon as I walked into the room, someone was getting deported. I waited for 2.5 hrs. The screen between you and the officer is thick and the a/c is loud so you basically have to shout your most personal details at them for the whole room to hear. There were no interrogation rooms; just a person at a desk calling us up one by one.
The lady before me had to talk loudly about all her cancer treatments with her son right there. Also, they don't advise that you should bring any documents into the room. All they say is to leave your bags at the door. So if the officer is asking for proof of something that may be in your hand luggage, you aren't able to go and get it. They spent almost 30 minutes asking me everything about my mom and dad, all my social media info, and then finally ended by asking me if I'd traveled to any Middle-Eastern countries, and then I was like "Ohhhhhh.. It's because of my last name".
Your voice has changed your looks have changed!!! You've grown up
All for the best I hope :) do I know you?
Thanks for sharing Jansher. It's the law now. Immigration officers have authority to ask you any questions/check phone, social media etc they want to know about you. It's their job. Be polite & answer all questions. You should be good to go. Secondary is a normal procedure now.
Have you been back to the US? If so, have you gone again through secondary inspection?
Even I had the same experience second time when am travelled to usa . They really ask me list of questions and got drilled screwed up .. they took my phone and I don’t knw they din’t even opened it . But as a women and I was travelling alone to visit my sister and that day I was really feeling ill after getting down the flight cant even able to resist myself . And he said as am not taking my child along with me so,am a bad mother .. he insulted me and motherhood . Nothing is there I jus want to visit places with my sis and the thing is I visited back in 3 mnth s again to usa . That’s made them suspect me . But when we are not doing any illegal things and though we don’t have any intensions they will suspect like terrorists . The system should change no respect no politenes really anawkward experience and am frightened to visit again
Your not a bad mother.....I'm sorry about your experience. I myself (USA citizen) yesterday in Taiwan airport had SSSS printed on my boarding pass. I had no idea what was happening, but like you I had about 10 minutes of swabbing, Pat down, questions, shoes off, etc. Terrible process to be put thru when your connecting to your final flight back to your own country. ✈️🇺🇸
Typical American government hospitality. I'm so sorry for your experience
i flew from germany to chicago with my 2 kids and we were held and treated like criminals for SIX hours. They took you to secondary screening because your are brown and from South Asia. No other reason. CBP profiles anyone from there and do this. They don't care if you miss your connection (we did...it was 5 hours later). We were held longer than drug dealers that were arrested in front of us, they had old people also asian in wheelchairs held for 2-3-4 hours. They will never tell you WHY you were held and will never apologize. Good luck in your future trips to the US. I'm an American btw and a citizen of the US since 1980 and my kids 17 and 10 were both born in Houston. This won't ever change. We live in Europe and try our best NOT to fly to the US unless we absolutely have to.
"No other reason."? He did mention he was denied entry previously. I would think that would definitely be cause for them to take a person into secondary.
Nine years ago when I was a teenager, me and my family were travelling from Ireland to California. We were going through US Customs in San Francisco airport and the TSA agent that was interviewing us asked some very, weird questions (as they do). Particularly, he asked why my little brother was the only one in our family who had red hair. 😂😂
My parents had to explain to him that red hair was a recessive gene and that both my parents were carriers of it. I have cousins, aunties and a grandmother who have red hair. I told this story to other Americans and they said he might’ve thought my little brother was being trafficked as it tends to happen often. The TSA agent obviously let us through no problem. Thankfully, he never took us to a separate room for further interrogation. 😅 I know they’re only trying to protect America’s borders but what a question to ask! 🫣😂
CBP may have watched this video, they would question you again probably if you travel to US
CBP are just like mad devils on earth 😀
Lol
and more lol 😂
Great video. Sorry about your experience. I also had SSSS on my boarding pass yesterday in Taiwan airport. As we (the passengers) were in line to board, the airlines employee told me to go down stairs to another big room and wait for my name and seat number to be called. The next 30 minutes were nerve wracking. I never heard about SSSS before. Anyway, it's becoming unbearable to fly these days. ✈️🇺🇸
What type of visa ?
Im from Pakistan and CBP offocer was Indian he treated me badly even my child has esta Indian CBP showed that they will be cruel to Muslims ever he just deported me back without any reason by asking me thousands of questions
Thanks to BJP and RSS government in India. These idiots will be more aggressive and rude to any non Hindus.
Wow, that's crazy! What was your port of entry in the US?
Thank you brother ❤
Hum me Femely k sath aplai kiya tha viza mila but hum 2 friend jane wale he to kya aripot pe problem hogi ? Intarnal flight he hamari 2 or bus tikit bhi mum to JFK PZ rip me
It happened also in Heathrow Airport in UK, they just pick a person randomly to undergo secondary screening.
Did they let you go after that?
I also went thru this process, yesterday March 1 in Taiwan. Returning from 1 year in Philippines. SSSS printed on my boarding pass. New to me,. Lol. Really ruins your trip, especially when your already tired from long flight. ✈️🇺🇸
Hey sir i have a question: Where can i see my visa interview date ? ☺
How many months u stayed in usa before coming back???
The same thing happened with me also when I landed at JFK in 2018. I was stopped for secondary screening as my name was very common.
For how long? And did they let u in
@@beyondthestars4299 they keep in the cell till the next flight to deport You back

Hi! My name is Liana and I'm an English teacher in Brazil. I'm doing a project about experiences at immigration and customs, and I'd like to know if it'd be Ok to use parts of your video (duly cited) in a video I'm creating. I wanted to publish my video on TH-cam on public mode. My channel is a tiny little channel with almost 10 people inscribed. Very trendy (lol)! I hope you say yes! Let me know, please!
Hello. Please tell me what parts you’d like to use
Thanks for sharing this video, sorry this happened you! Great video on showing what can go wrong in immigration at the airport!
I have had the same experience and at same port EWR , and twice and happened after i made almost 20 trips to US. But i think i bought seperate 1 way tickets both the time and that could be the reason for ssss . And almost same type of irrelevant questions were asked from me too.
I had a connecting flight which i missed and the experience was nasty and made me think twice do i need to visit the country again .
I almost thought i was shahrukh khan of my name is khan movie.
I think EWR should be avoided by all means though i have used ewr couple of times in past
Sir, have you two stars on your USA visa stamp??
One star, what does it mean ?
That means the more the star you have the difficult immigration will be
@@faisaltanoli83 how
stars mean nothing
Same happened with at abu dhabi airport
Ohh so then what happen?
@@JansherBanaji it happened on wednesday was cleared after 2 hours
Wow 2 hours was long! hope you did not miss your flight!
@@JansherBanaji no on time
Thank god.
All you've to do is cooperate. This is their job and you must cooperate.
Every country is allowed to protect their borders - just be glad you didn't get a gun in your face. I did once - in Afghanistan. If you don't like in depth screenings, don't travel. All countries have screenings. All of them. I saw an older lady get taken into a separate room to have her wet diaper checked to make sure it was really a diaper. And she was a born in the US American citizen, had contributed to her country for decades as a nurse and now just wanted to take a flight to visit the family of her children. So..... get over it.
The same thing happened to me, he even asked me about my grades
Which airport?
@@gopinath4564 it was on the border between US and Canada in Buffalo city, but it was a funny story
To be very honest firstly Jansher shouldn’t have to go through the rubbish he did! Can’t compare Jansh but you’re right n plus can’t share experience as not relevant 😘
I have been to countries, like UK, Germany, France, Italy twice, Switzerland, Georgia, turkey, Azerbaijan. Never experienced such thing, I am a Pakistani national but Dubai Resident. Any one knows why I didn’t face such thing ?
you will face it soon after your comment here.
@@kaleidoscopeon 🤣😂😂😂😂😂
😳😳😳😳😳
Entering any country is a privilege not a right. There are no guarantees. If you don't like USA stop coming here
Bootlicker
Doesn't cost anything to be nice though we wouldn't say that if you came to our country no one should be treated like that especially when you have another flight to get to.
