sandancer Posted June 15, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I have also posted the following on the Cruise Air forum but hope by posting here someone may have had the same problem - so here goes: As I have no idea where to ask this question I am hoping someone might have relevant information. In April we left Fort Lauderdale by cruise ship afterstaying 5 nights from the date of arrival. Today we both had emails from the US Border Agency advising that our i95 entries are about to expire and we need to leave the US. It appears the cruise line did not follow procedure and advise the authorities that we had departed. The emails have a do not reply rider so no way to reply. We are returning in August by air and can see us at the front of a long line at MIA trying to persuade the agent that we have not overstayed. Any ideas?

flossie009 Posted June 15, 2022 #2 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Contact your cruise-line and the US Border Agency: https://www.cbp.gov/contact?language_content_entity=en https://help.cbp.gov/s/questions?language=en_US If you use the webform there is the facility to upload an attachment - maybe your cruise booking confirmation and itinerary together with a copy of the email that you have received. Definitely worth getting sorted before you try to return to the USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aulanis Posted June 29, 2022 #4 Share Posted June 29, 2022 (edited) We had this problem - a few cruises and years ago and just ignored it. been back to the US at least twice since and were not stopped or queried. The whole ship was affected and one guy from Australia spent months trying to get it fixed. Dont know if he ever did. All seems a bit jobsworth when you consider the number of illegal immigrants they have. Edited June 29, 2022 by Aulanis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandancer Posted June 29, 2022 Author #5 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Thanks. That’s reassuring. We’ve been in touch with the cruise line and they can’t help. Going to travel as planned and hope for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
