Hi,

I had an issue when i travelled first time to US on B1 Visa.
In my passport B1 Visa annotation says that i will be atending business discussion at Florida,
But i have landed in Newyork from india. In the I94 counter they have asked me to submit
the air tickets to florida from New york. But i have not booked the tickets, more over i was travelling to dallas which i didn't disclose to officer.
then officer asked me that wether i have booked any hotel or not then i had a piece of paper which contains info about dallas hotel.
Then he was angry for lying and he ask me to go back to india initially then he handed over me to Black caps. Then security officer again ask me the reason
i said since today is saturday my HR won't be there in florida so i will be going to dallas, but monday i will be going to florida.
Then he said he will call me on monday at the florida address then he gave I94 for 2 months. Then i went to Dallas and stayed there for 2 months with out going to floroda and returned
to india.
So my question is next month again i will be travelling US. So this time will they ask me why i have not travelled last time to florida, If so what should i tell to them.

No body ask you, where inside US are you travelling last time??
Next time be prepared with Tickets and hotel/address wherever you are going. Telling the lies put you in Jail some time. It is not India, officer first beleive your words, upon verification if he/she found you told lies (any lies), you may face severe problem, jail also an option.

--thats all good, you showed them your intention of going to Florida. Thats the reason you didn't get deported.

Then he said he will call me on monday at the florida address then he gave I94 for 2 months. Then i went to Dallas and stayed there for 2 months with out going to floroda and returned to india.

---at the business address where your passport has an annotation, did you call them and ask if someone called upon you, inquiring about your physical presence at this address??? I would call them, and ask the question, if I havenot done so. FIRST.

So my question is next month again i will be travelling US. So this time will they ask me why i have not travelled last time to florida, If so what should i tell to them.

---Good luck in your next visit to US. Tell them that you had a problem in Dallas, and could not go to Florida. Give them some strong reason that since the business was for few days, and you had a problem in Dallas, you missed that opportunity to go back to Florida. You stayed in Dallas for the validity of your I-94. So basically you are not out of status. This time the reason you are visiting to US, I am not sure whats your primary purpose is.
 
Hi
The thing is it was a last minute decission that i will have to go to Dallas, thats why, when i called them at my Florida office they only ask me to stay back at dallas. On monday they didn't recieve any call from Immigration people itseems.

This time purpose is to get the Knowledge Transfer for one of the Leading US Banking Project. I will be comming from an MNC IT company
 
Tell them that your last visit was not successful, this time you are going to attend the banking project in MNC IT company. Also give them their phone number if they would like to verify. Rest is good, have a nice trip in US.
