I had a similar experience which you had. In 2017, when I came back from India to USA, an immigration officer send me and my mom to the different hall and sat for a while along with other people. At time am not worried because i know USA change their immigration rules often. After I while they send us to immigration station and the lady starts asking a bunch of questions (like. How I get in USA in the first place? What my parents do? What I am doing? How I get my green card? etc). That was first i was held in there. Usually, they ask 1 or 2 questions or nothing. By the way, the immigration officer was an Indian lady (maybe that's why she ask a bunch of questions). So basically don't freak out when you had this kind of experiences. Moreover, *BE NICE TO THE OFFICERS, EVEN THEY DRIVES YOU CRAZY*
It's a pity that we have to go through such rude questioning, but I really hope they pay for such bad behaviour in their real existent lives. Not cursing but how are they going to pay for it? Karma should bite hard.
I just want to thank you on behalf of all your subscribers , your videos are super informative. It's of so much help for aspirants like us . Thank you parth 😊.
We’ll that’s CBP ( US customs and border protection ) normal procedures for secondary inspection as they are the first line of defence in the united states . A travellers immigration is subject to inspection & review @ all times and there is nothing to worry about it
That’s normal to get picked up randomly at customs. I was picked up at IGI after checking in. They have system going through travel dates. I was in india only for 10 days and that could have been the reason.
Even l was once picked up for random custom check in New Delhi. I was flying to Singapore via Sri Lanka. I wasn't informed why l was picked up. They just asked me random questions like why l was travelling and how much money l was carrying.
I had the same experience traveling to US couple of times. Got used to it now. I have applied global entry for the same reason, should see how it goes next time when I travel.
Same thing happened with me bro when I was going to Washington airport from chatrapati shivaji Mumbai airport with my family for a week tour.And I was stopped and they kept my passport and boarding pass and take me to a room where a couple of people where also waiting like students, few ladies, a pilot, etc. But now I now there's no need to worry next time if samething happens with me again.
Bro in case any to study in us or UK suppose they first in that time no relatives there in that time we went direct University or what is the best to do that time. Please vedio
Radhika Goel I'll be traveling to the US for the first time this August. And guess what, it will also be the first time I take a flight. Super anxious would be an understatement.
It won't happen to you if your an American Citizen. Usually how one looks, how many times you have travelled, and your status is what comes in as a red flag. My brother is a stalky extremely fair, above 6 foot tall guy with a beard. He is always chosen for random checks.
Music too loud. The problem is that we have neighbours so we don't want to keep volume loud. Now if i put for your music then you are not audible. If i put for you then suddenly music screws everything.
Hey Parth, I am visiting\ Las Vegas for official training of 4 days and then extending my stay for 4 days to visit SFO & LA and having valid Non immigrant US B1 & B2 Visa along with return ticket and hotel bookings. Do I need to fill any custom form before departure from India (I am planning to carry my laptop, mobile, clothes, some ready to eat packaged food and cigarette packs) and while returning to home town INDIA, I am planning to purchase a perfume bottle of 100ml for my father, a pair of shoes for myself, some cloths for my wife, daughter and for my self. do I again need to declare all the purchased item before departure from US.
Sushil Datt and to counter fake students at fake universities of which (unfortunately) Indian organizations have set up a lot of not only in the US but also in a lot of western Countries. Basically it’s a double check on fraudulent activities for fake immigration attempts from citizens of countries from which it is prevailing - India being up there. It is unfortunate for the legitimate candidates - but rightfully so as the majority applying have abused the system. Students and H1B applicants. It’s not only for terrorism
I came California USA last two months before and USA immigration they didn't ask me any question but our on own Delhi they asked me many questions why you going,what you will do there etc.
Sir, it is very easy to blame customs, but they have responsibilities to enforce customs Law to prevent illegal activities such as smuggling...and also to safeguard Government Revenue from those who are importing goods more than permissible limits without paying customs duty....Why they are doing random checks why not all..the answer is to provide smooth movement of passengers...
Will you be asked why US and why this University kind of questions like at the US VISA OFFICE at the Airport Terminals, like you have mentioned in this video? Hopefully, you answer it. Thank you so much, Parth.
Are questions related to immunization asked at Immigration? If my university is going to provide all vaccinations which is covered under my health insurance so should i take any vaccination in India or not ?
Hi I met with a person who lives in London on instagram and he is coming to india very first time and he carried 65000 pounds hard cash with him and custome officer caught them and they are sqying he needs to make the payment of rs 32000 and will make paper abd release to that person and that foreigner said he know only me in India so i have make the payment but again that lady custom officer called me said he have some extra luggage so he needs to pay 75000 more I have denied but he is texting me for making a payment and said he will pay me back . Anyone please suggest what to do. Is this a scam or something?
Dude, just stay in India, stop coming to the United States! Your home is India....My home is the United States. Go to your home and make it a great place to live.
I just wish if ppl through donkey to USA are stopped ,questioned and deported instead of random customs checking ppl travel'g LEGALLY to USA for studying etc,
How was it bad experience to you? What you expect? Them to give you customer service? They still let you in. Be thankful and don’t bitch about bad experience.
Do we need to pay the fee in advance before landing in USA? Bcoz as per my loan's terms and condition, they will disburse the amount directly into university's account once i will reach there. There are lot of rumours now-a-days that students are being deported because they haven't paid their 1st semester fees? Is it true?
Hey! I have been admitted to Purdue for phd chemistry 2019 batch. I would be obliged if you could help me with the visa questions. I mean what not to say. Thnx.
This happened to me this time but because of my ead in USA but had a random check in Dubai while traveling with baby I was scared as I had some personal jewelry on carryon
Please make a video on sim card, health insurance and other essential documents required there And you're doing a great job making such videos. Thank you.
What was the point of this video? It was not a single educational stuff there. It seemed you were trying to show off with your office and stuff and showing off your English accent. Stop wasting time.
Hello! I got an Emigration clearance from the POE office when I was going to Saudi Arabia. I'm currently going to Qatar and need Emigration clearance. When should I get that Emigration clearance: after applying for a visa or before applying for a visa? My employer has already applied for a visa. Can my employer apply for Emigration clearance now? Please tell me the details about it. How long does Emigration clearance process take? ''So the Emigration clearance process can be done after the visa printout right?''
Bro make a video on SIM card for students or buying mobile in us with carrier
Great info in the video. It will help a lot of people when they're faced with this situation or other similar situations. Keep'em coming. Thanks.

Same thing happened with me in 2020
at most airport in the world its normal for random customs checks, expect and tel avive airport they do racial custom check
Even l was once picked up for random custom check in New Delhi. I was flying to Singapore via Sri Lanka. I wasn't informed why l was picked up. They just asked me random questions like why l was travelling and how much money l was carrying.

Radhika Goel I'll be traveling to the US for the first time this August. And guess what, it will also be the first time I take a flight. Super anxious would be an understatement.

Parth Savyasachi your correct..he unnecessarily showing other stupid things and playing Loud music like a travel video
Great video stay calm and cool
Bro you said I20 that means you must be having an f1 visa..can you work outside the campus with this?
The fact many don't know is they track all people from the minute one boards the flight to the u.s at their origin through black magic
Hey Parth,

Guyz we need to understand this is not insulting! its just a procedure to counter terrorism! dont take it personally.
