My CBP story __

We flew Delta 22nd of May, me and my L.O. The ticket was cost as F*ck but we had choice because of the stress in flying them golf countries ( Etihad, Emirates & Qatar ) airlines.
We got to ATLANTA 5.25am, 41 mins ahead of schedule. FROM PLANE TO CPB- The QUEUE was moderate.

ME- Good morning
CBP- Good morning

I handed over our passports to him

CBP- Where are you going this morning?
ME- CHICAGO.

CBP- How long are you going to stay?
ME- 4 months.

CBP- Why are you staying that long?
ME- I am here on a vacation and childbirth

CBP- Oh, you going to have your baby here?
Me- YesKe

CBP- So, how much cash are you traveling with?
ME- $10,715 in cash and i have another $7,660 in my master card

CBP- Oh, that's over 10k, so i will have to send you over to customs to declare your cash
ME- Oh, ok. How do i go about that?

CBP- I'll call someone to put you through.
ME- OK, thanks.

CBP- Pls move over there and put your 4 fingers for thumbprint after that camera.

ME- Done with that...

CBP- So, it's just two of you traveling?
Me- Yes.

That's all.

HE STAMPED ME IN TILL NOVEMBER.

HE CALLED A LADY OVER TO COME TAKE US TO THE CUSTOMS, HE GAVE HER MY PASSPORT AND A CUSTOM FORM, THEN RETURN MY L.O's PASSPORT TO ME.

We got to the customs, waited till my turn ( about 15 mins )

2nd CBP-

Held my passport but couldn't pronounce my name
so, he was looking at the pic to ask if it was mine so i could come over to the counter, so moved closer and smiled and he said ( am sorry i couldn't pronounce your name ) then i said it's fine.

so he asked.

CBP- how much you have on you?
ME- $10,715 and i have another $7,660 in my master card.

CBP- Why do you have that much?
ME- I am here to for Vacation n Childbirth.

CBP- Oh, you are pregnant?
ME- Yes.

CBP- How far long are you and when are you due?
ME- August.

HE ASKED TO SEE THE CASH, I SHOWED HIM THE ENVELOP ABOUT TO BRING OUT THE CASH, HE SAID NEVER MIND. ( I GUESS HE JUST WANTED TO SEE THE CASH )

CBP- Ok. You have to fill this cash declaration form ( i did )
He then asked, is it your first time of filling those forms, ( i said yes )

CBP- Is your husband coming too?
ME- Hopefully.

He handed my passport back and said Enjoy your stay.

NOTE--

No document were checked, not even my LO's receipts.

I wish every mama n papa on this trend good luck, Y"all shall share good news too.

my wife travelled through JFK to chicago. changed the flight to return through chicago before new return date

Waliwa:
A number of Chicago-bound mamas have shared their travel stories, so you can read-up to get a sense of their different experiences. I was advised that it was best to travel through the east coast or Atlanta, but ended up flying directly to Chicago O'Hare and I had no problems. I shared my POE experience a while ago, so you can search for it.

All the best.
