As long as your story stacks up, you should be fine. The bolded is what i dont get and it might backfire on you.

I highly suggest you buy your domestic tickets before you leave Nigeria. That way, even if the POE officer doubts your story, your domestic

tickets would bail you out. Hope you understand what i am trying to say.
Thanks for the feedback. From replies gotten so far, it would not be necessary to spend a night in New York anymore. I hope to get cheaper tickets (with the help of the great people here). So i will leave JFK on same day (September 1st) i arrive.
Thank you!!!

I understand things are very expensive now and it's normal for you to want to save cost but in doing so you have to be careful about it.
You should be able to get and confirm your ticket from New York to Miami before leaving Nigeria because it's very very important not only for trust issue but also for you to have a smooth and memorable holiday,stress is not a good thing.
If you can provide me with the date you want to travel to Florida I will try to help you with cheap flights to Florida from New york.
.

Thanks a lot. My dates are 1st September to 15th September. JFK-MIAMI-JFK
TravelRe: U.S Visit: Port Of Entry Interview/stories. by valeria: 3:29pm On Jul 17, 2017
Thanks to everyone for your immense help and responses.

We (spouse, kid and I) will be travelling to the U.S next month and it's our first visit to America.

Our application stated Miami as destination but tickets are so expensive this summer that we decided to book a flight to New York and intend to get a domestic flight from JFK to Miami the following morning. We have booked a night stay at a hotel close to JFK and another 14 nights stay at the Miami hotel.

I am a bit worried now because we have a contact in New York (also stated in our application) and it may sound like we are changing our destination because we have someone in New York to accommodate us.

The domestic flights seen online are costly and we hope to get cheaper options when we go to the local airport the following day.

Is there something we should be worried about?

Thanks in anticipation

The last time I was in U.S. I spent 2 days in New York even though final destination is Atlanta. I purchased a ticket from New York to Atlanta in Nigeria with my GTB naira card and book a room for 2 nights in New York. I told the CBP officer finally destination is Atlanta but will stay in New York for 2 days before proceeding to Atlanta.
All you need to do is make sure you have booked a flight to Florida and have a concise explanation about why you're not flying straight to your final destination.
Tank you very much

Hello Everyone,

Thank you for your usual help and support. i have just a quick question. Our application has it that we are visiting Florida. However, we intend to spend a few days in New York before proceeding to Miami. will there be a problem at POE? Since we indicated on the application that we have a US contact in New York.

BTW getting a flight from Lagos to Miami is very expensive this summer and we do not intend to book the domestic flight until we are in New York. We are spending a total of 16 days.

Thank you!!!
