海关新政策对我们有什么影响？

转自人人：
今天收到学校CGE的邮件, 美帝海关又有新动作了, 大概分为这个三方面:

1. 由于Boston事件, 持F签证入关的会被送去做second inspection, 过关大概要delay 3-4 小时

(至于是不是都送小黑屋就不知道了...个人觉得每个人都送不太现实.....)

2. 由于海关削减经费人手不足, 所有入关的都可能被delay 2-3 小时

3. 纸质I-94被电子版取代了



全文如下:

CBP SECONDARY INSPECTION

If you are RETURNING to the U.S. WITHIN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS, please be aware that many U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) ports of entry are currently sending anyone entering on a student visa to secondary inspection. This change comes due to the fact that one of the students accused of covering up evidence from the Boston bombing entered the U.S. on a terminated SEVIS record. If you are sent to secondary inspection, please expect a 3 - 4 hour delay. Though this is inconvenient, CBP is working to make this process more efficient. CBP has stated that within the next few weeks they hope to have the capabilities that will allow them to run the extra SEVIS check without having to send student visa holders to secondary inspection.



CBP DELAYS THROUGH SEPTEMBER

Please note that due to the government sequester (budget cuts), there may be a shortage of officers working at the various Customs ports of entries. As a result, the wait time for passing through Customs may be longer when you are returning to the U.S. this summer or fall. When making your travel plans, it may be in your best interest to expect at least a 2 - 3 hour delay in Customs.



I-94 POLICY CHANGE - REMINDER

Please be aware that the CBP office will stop issuing paper I-94 cards at airports and sea ports - they are moving to a completely automated I-94 system. This new rule will be implemented at all airports and sea ports by the end of May 2013. Once this change goes into effect, you will no longer receive a paper I-94 card during entry to the U.S. by airplane or cruise. However, when you reenter DOUBLE-CHECK to make sure that your passport is properly stamped and marked F-1 D/S.



Since you will still need to present an I-94 to verify your F-1 status for driver's license and HR/SSN purposes, you will be able to print off a paper I-94 card free at www.cbp.gov/i94.  If you happen to lose this print-out I-94, you will be able to reprint it for free.



lz想问，这个政策是不是说我们以后选转机一定要选转机时间在一个小时以上的？

“持F签证入关的会被送去做second inspection, 过关大概要delay 3-4 小时” 这个是指在到底美国境内出关吧？买了加航的机票，在多伦多和温哥华转两次机，每次间隔都只有~2h，不知道会不会有影响啊

同学，请问你买加航这种情况就不用过境签了吧？还要去哪儿拿什么不用过境签的证明吗？

理论上是不需要过境签的，因为不过夜不超过24h是可以的！但是为了防止航班延误这类突发情况的出现，所以还是办理过境签吧，不是很麻烦也不贵

看来咱俩节奏差不多哈哈。。我也大概是下周签美帝。。。

今天过关，被单独检查了十分钟左右，可能是入境的时候人相对较少，所以比较快

在加拿大转两次机的必须要有过境签. 转一次机实际是在美国设在加拿大机场的海关入境.
