I think this will work:
- "What's the purpose of your visit?"
- "I will be looking for a job in the U.S."
- "But you have a visitor's VISA here"
- "Oh.. mmm.. but I am coming here to work"
- "I am sorry this is not going to work out"

- outworlder 13y agoPrecisely. Not sure if it is a crime or not (probably!), but lying is never a good idea, specially to an immigration agent. Just telling the truth should suffice. The only issue is if it will cause trouble later on should she try to enter again. I assume it would. EDIT: There is probably a 'alien will probably overstay' flag somewhere. Not a 'alien will overstay provided she is still married to an out of status alien'.
- rockdoe 13y agoThis seems a quite sane and simple answer.
