∙ 14y agoIn the early 1700s the United States did not exist. The eastern and gulf coasts of America held the colonies of England, France and Spain. Quebec, Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and New Orleans were major ports but ships called at these and smaller ports all along the coast to deposit passengers, and none of them had the substantial Immigration traffic that would lead the term "major immigration port" to be applied to some in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

I married a US citizen in the Philippines he returned to the US and he left me to process the papers I have a multiple entry US tourist visa before I married him can I use this visa to go to the US?
Tourist visas are intended to allow individuals to *temporarily travel to the U.S. If you make it to the U.S. port of entry, immigration officials may send you back to your home country once they learn you are married to a U.S. citizen. Remember, immigration officials at the ports of entry have discretion to do this. Moreover, if you LIE about your marriage status you will regret it when you try to adjust status in the U.S. Your husband needs to move forward at this point. As the U.S. citizen, the U.S. government gives HIM the privilege to petition for you to immigrate to the U.S. He should decide whether he wants to petition for a K3 or IR visa. Both visas will allow you to enter the U.S. and eventually become a permanent resident. http://www.dixonimmigration.com/index.php?pid=2
