USA Entry - CBP Mobile Passport control app [MPC]

[I love to travel]

Came through Chicago yesterday and clear MPC (mobile phone) signs displayed. Unfortunately I didn’t have the correct app and took 45 minutes to process rather that 10.

What app did you have so we can make sure we have the right one. Thanks

The correct one according to the officer at the terminal is MPC.

Is there another?

A link to the US CBP landing page for MPC is in post #1. That page contains links to the android and apple apps.

Looking forward to a pleasant surprise with MPC @ LAX soon

I used the app with my Australian Passport (entered the US previously with my French Passport) and had no trouble going through.
It took us less than 2 minutes to pass immigration at SFO - clear designated lines for MPC.

We used it at LAX last week, however the line was also used by a heap of people with express passes, and they only had one agent serving the line. Still better than bring in the normal line.

Kind of annoying this is restricted to US Citizens/PRs and returning ESTA travellers rather than people returning on visas other than Canadian B visas. I have GE but MPC seems at least as good as GE. Is it?

 

[serfty]

Is it?

Probably not ... with MPC, you still need to see an agent. I don't thinkthat's generally the case with GE.

I usually do have to see an agent, but I think I'm the exception because I have GE from by UK passport but enter with a visa in my Australian one.
