POE. DV visa holders acceptance or denial

[shiberfield]

Its known that your issued visa by the embassy does not guarantee your entrance to the US as the decision will be taken by homeland security officers.

I had a discussion with a previous DV winner who claims that some POE are more prone to reject your visa (in his example JFK) and some are more tolerant (in his example IAD) . Is this true fact?

Of course not.

BS!

The only case of a denial at entry I have ever heard of was someone who had a past criminal conviction that came up on the CBP system. As it happens the embassy had known about this and issued the visa anyway ( I can't remember the details but I think it had been a very old conviction) and he eventually got entrance after another try. If I recall correctly the denial was at a road border crossing from Canada.

Fair enough. Thanks @SusieQQQ and all.
