Does USCIS track my previous travels to the USA?

When you initiate an immigration process, such as the EB‑2 NIW, it becomes common to undergo a series of checks and analyses regarding your travel history and activities in the country. This analysis is part of the security measures adopted by the United States government to confirm compliance with the law.

It is important to understand that USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services) has access to your history of entries and exits from the American territory – information that is recorded, in many cases, by agencies such as US Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Thus, the government is able to track your past travels and, during the immigration benefits analysis process, this data may be requested to verify the records presented by the applicant.

When filling out forms and participating in interviews related to your application, the applicant must provide accurate and complete information about their travel history. Omission or incorrect information may lead to complications which, ultimately, could negatively affect your process.

Therefore, it is essential to comply with all United States immigration laws and provide truthful data during the process. It is worth emphasizing that it is always recommended to thoroughly study the official guidelines of immigration agencies and be cautious when dealing with easy promises or marketing campaigns that guarantee unusual results.

The best practice is always to follow the laws’ guidance and, when necessary, seek specialized and reliable advice, avoiding unnecessary risks in your immigration journey. Remember: maintaining transparency and compliance with the US government’s requirements is essential to smoothly advance your immigration process.
