拿了公民应该享有应该享受的权利，如果被人误解可以解释一下，不必要每次往歧视上面挂靠

在国内就不会被歧视，我回国去医院，问外国人没有身份证怎么挂号，接待台的两个小妹妹直接四周看看，外国人在哪里？以后学精明了，就问拿外国护照的怎么挂号，人家医院有小姑娘一路给我开绿灯加了个号

芝加哥、纽约、纽瓦克、洛杉矶，这几个机场的经验是绿卡走CITIZEN通道。没绿卡之前，带美国护照的小孩，也可以一起走CITIZEN通道。

现在天天宣传反中，海关的办事人员看中国脸不顺眼，故意刁难一下也是很正常的。

不过海关的话，遇到这种事通常还是不要争了，平白无故说你可疑，关小黑屋俩小时再说嫌疑解除你也没办法。人家有这个权力，吃哑巴亏的是自己。

楼主你看过crash那部电影吗？里边的猪队友和你老公差不多

我一直以为绿卡不能走公民通道，每次过关都和家人分开走，带着孩子我问过工作人员结果让一起走非公民通道

这个事情去Reddit 看看别人的经历 可能更有意义，如果非要整出个 对与错来;

关键是看完下面一堆 老美网友的讨论，有 清楚结论了吗？ 我看没有，it all depends

Hello,

If I (US citizen) living overseas travel to the US with my GF (EU citizen traveling with ESTA) which line should we take at immigration? The last 2 times we received conflicting information from the airport personell:

First time we were told to go through immigration together since we are traveling together and she can go with me through the citizens line. But last time we were told to either split up or go through the non citizen line together.

Both times I didn’t ask the CBP officers because they didn’t seem to care and i didn’t want to annoy them.

Is there like an official rule or law?

replies;

Different by airport and the person on duty.

Depends on what airport, though generally US customs has one line for ESTA, Citizens and green card people, and another line for speciality visas.

Technically you’re supposed to go into the USC/LPR line, and she’s supposed to go into the non-USC line unless there’s a special line for ESTA. But it’s also one of those things that’s really up to person who you meet at the counter. All of the officers have the same training, and non citizens end up in the USC line all the time. The main reason for the different lines is so USC’s don’t have to wait as long to clear immigration. If I were in your shoes, I’d suggest you both just get into the USC line until told otherwise.

I know for JFK you split up. Idk about other airports

You can either go through the non-citizen line with her or go through the lines separately. Just be prepared that either way, you may get yelled at for doing it wrong.

I wouldn't bring her through the citizen line. The citizen lines are mostly automated at many airports with the scan passport/get receipt with photo system, and she probably can't do that.

Also, separate issue, be prepared that she may face much more scrutiny than she has in the past coming to the USA to visit an American boyfriend during the pandemic. It has been reported here that since traveler numbers are down, CBP officers now have more time to scrutinize travelers with "Why the heck are you coming here now?" questions.

CBP officers are also aware the US embassies abroad have suspended processing fiancee visa and spouse visas and that there will be backlogs and timelines will be longer once those visa services resume, which may create an extra incentive for someone to try to enter the USA on ESTA and then get married and adjust status.

She would be well advised to arrive with a return ticket showing a brief visit of a few weeks and a job/life to return to in Europe. If she has no job in Europe and is planning to stay with you for 3 months, they may suspect she wants to live in the USA.

Every time I've ever done it there's been conflicting information. I've been told by airport staff to go through the USC line with my USC wife, only to be questioned my I was doing that by the CBP officer.

Some airports have USC/PR/Visitor lines, some just have one line, some will have joint USC/PR lines.... really, it's a dartboard of options.

其他不说，你老公的处理方式是典型老美的方式，有问题正常交涉无果后，不吵闹先服从，留好证据，过后该抱怨抱怨该上庭上庭。其实挺好，避免公共场所撒泼打滚形象不好。国内一搞就大闹机场什么的也挺丢脸的

你这有点儿太委屈了吧，都是公民了凭啥要把自己当客人，那你的后代也要当客人吗

看来民主党当政真是少数族裔容易被歧视啊

家人里有公民的，

可以带着 绿卡走 公民的 line

Dulles 机场，有一年，绿卡老人，排队的时候，我们是公民，专门说了一下，就和我们走公民的line 了
