Why?
Due to different personal situations, applicants often need a quick response to their immigration application and can not wait the long processing times of online applications.
Flagpoling is a quick and effective method of getting your immigration case reviewed and a decision being made in front of you.
It normally takes around 1 hour for an officer at the border to process your case and to make a decision. With all additional required procedures at the US side, walking between borders and wait time will still be not more than 2-3 hours at maximum.
In-person conversation with an officer often helps to explain a client's case in detail and to address any possible concerns.
You will be given a chance to provide clarifications, additional evidence and personal details through in-person conversation with an officer.
If needed, your Employer or Family Members may accompany you at the border in person.
