Comment on How do I survive the US immigration?

Best advice I have for you is you look into soccer groups. That sounds odd, but we just had the World Cup here. Ask them how difficult or easy was to go through customs. As somebody else said how Caucasian do you look, Well, if you’re concerned about then Contact groups of fans that look basically like you and find out If they had any problems.
The problem is you were asking lemmy . The problem here is there’s way too many people that have this mentality of US bad . You’re going to get a heavily skewed Perspective.

Not all visits are the same, and that’s not really a good comparison. There’s a huge difference between visiting as a tourist temporarily for the world cup (a high profile event with extensive news coverage where any refusal is going to attract attention and be very internationally newsworthy) and the relatively routine process of actually immigrating for long-term work (dirty immigrants taking our jobs! /s) which is exactly what they are fighting against, whether any of us agree with that or not.
The latter is much, much riskier in today’s political climate. It shouldn’t be. But it is.
