I was nearly denied entry at a US airport yesterday during a domestic travel because the TSA agent wanted to verify my visa. She saw my old visa in my passport and refused to look at my new one despite me telling her multiple times. She asked me to step aside and called another agent. This agent told her they don't have to check my visa, only the passport and allowed me in. If I had just shown my US license instead, this could have been avoided.
This is the second time I had a similar experience. The first one was when I was leaving from US. Just before boarding, someone from CBP wanted to check my visa. He saw my old visa first and started raising his voice.
I am not used to being treated as a criminal. I guess I will have to get used to it or leave this country.
