U.S. Immigration Station

A U.S. Immigration Station is a facility where new arrivals to the United States are processed and screened by immigration officials. It serves as an entry point, where individuals’ identities, admissibility, and legal status are verified. These stations handle activities such as health checks, documentation review, and determining eligibility for entry. They also facilitate the detention or release of travelers, depending on circumstances. Overall, the station acts as a controlled gateway to ensure that immigration laws are followed and that only authorized individuals enter the country.
