Hi ,

I have travelled to india last november and my port of entry is Chicago, during my return they stopped me and questioned me for about 45 min and verified all documents grabbing my file bag, now its time for me to travel again for my brothers marriage next month.

i have my OPT valid till december of 2013 , and H1 got approved recently for 3 years

my question is

1. do i need to look for a different port of entry, if so please advice which is better and near to Chicago ?

2. any further suggestions to avoid being questioned?

please advice

1.No need to do so. All the POE have same info

2. what's the reason for initial scrutiny at the POE?

Port of entry makes no difference. Why are you afraid of being questioned if you have nothing to hide? Answer their questions truthfully. If you fear doing so, you either should not travel or go home permanently.

1. No. You are aware of databases and cloud computing?? Yes?

2. No suggestion can avoid questioning since you have been subject to secondary Inspection in the past. If you have done no wrong there should be no problem.
