German teens denied entry to US for traveling ‘under false pretenses’ and ‘intended to work’: Border Patrol
ny post ^

A pair of backpacking German teens booted from the US lied about the purpose of their trip, Customs and Border Patrol said — but the women claim US officials “twisted” their words to trump up the allegations.

“These travelers were denied entry after attempting to enter the US under false pretenses. One used a Visitor visa, the other the Visa Waiver Program,” CBP officials told The Post Monday.

“Both claimed they were touring California but later admitted they intended to work — something strictly prohibited under US immigration laws for these visas.”

But the women — who were planning to continue on to Los Angeles and then Costa Rica after Hawaii — insisted they were interrogated by CBP for hours, and that transcripts show their words were “twisted” and outright falsified.

Brother of a friend took the Chunnel from France to Britain. When British immigration asked him what he was doing there he said he just wanted to hang out, maybe work as a bartender, do some sightseeing.

Needless to say he was denied entry.

You think foreign nationals can work in the USA without a work visa?

They weren’t here trying to get a job. They just didn’t have a complete itinerary because they didn’t know exactly what cities they wanted to visit. The Border Patrol handled it crudely. They wouldn’t have treated them like that if they came in illegally like under Biden.

Now we know their side, let’s hear the Customs side. My guess is that they simply didn’t have enough money with them to ‘hang out’ in the US per their timeline, so tough Shiite, find countries that look the other way when you plan to work, we’re no longer in that business.

Therefore I have no issue how it was handled.

It was handled crudely - like entering some third world country.

If you’re lying, you’re gonna be crying.

It’s one of Trump’s new rules.

Absolutely. There are millions of them who crossed the border illegally.

This is the correct answer! Just bc you show up doesn’t mean entry is a given.
