Probably a response from people’s questions , will we be contacted to make sure test has been done etc. I’m planning on taking my own in April and I do worry that I will be asked for evidence of results whether that be leaving the country or whilst there, hadn’t really thought of who it would be that contacted us. Leaving the country - my thoughts are they won’t be bothered as basically you are going so not their problem any more 😂

I’m totally overthinking it. I didn’t want to go when I found out about the testing as I thought we would have to go to a clinic etc. Much happier now I can just swab him in hotel room,If it’s even asked for still in April!
I’m now thinking no question will be asked at all about these tests! |

No questions will be asked and no one will be contacting you. You know all the Covid tracker Aps we have in various countries, which are national and were developed by our Governments? Well in America they don't as it would not be legal in all states. The entry requirements for USA are set by the Federal Government, who have jurisdiction over the airports. Thats why they can require Covid tests before arrival. But once in America it is state law. ie local laws.
There is no infrastructure to track all the under 18's arriving into every airport in every state and to make sure they are being tested 3 to 5 days after arrival. Remember, its not just MCO airport in Florida that European families are landing at. All the international airports in all 50 states, from JFK and Boston, LAX, New Orleans, Chicago, to all the airports that are not high profile like Philadelphia, Kansas, Dallas, Denver and the hundreds more. And its not just Europeans who are allowed back in USA. Families from Brazil, China, India, Iran, South Africa, Mexico and Canada are all allowed back and have to sign the same attestation form about the 3 to 5 day testing for under 18's. The Federal Government of America does not have the infrastructure or the legal jurisdiction to track and trace their own citizens on a national basis, so there is no way they will track and trace all the international under 18's 3 to 5 days after arrival. |

Vaccine status information is collected by the airline before you get on the plane. Depending on the airline you upload your information to the airline website or to an App.
The immigration agents are not checking and don't need or want to see the vaccine information. They are just doing the normal checks of passport, finger print scan, eye scan, questions about your trip etc. |

Just further to this, which is all correct.
During covid those that entered the US but had to quarantine under the rule were never chased or tracked to ensure they did. They had no quarantine hotels or anything like that. Most of the officers probably are unaware of the 3-5 day test let alone care about it. |

I flew in yesterday on the first flight into Tampa. We were club world, so were quickly through. It was just our flight at immigration. News crew were there and it was a party atmosphere once you’d got your bags and went through the doors. The goody bag was rubbish though 😂.
With regards to forms, paperwork and all that. My wife and I are fully vaccinated and we had our 4 month old who had no requirements. I used VeriFLY to upload the vaccination and test certificates (Boots rapid antigen) and completed VeriFLYs 2 question attestation forms. I showed the green ticks to ground staff before entering the check in queues and didn’t show them again or provide any paperwork to anyone. I didn’t have a printed out attestation form or was offered one at check in. Nothing was asked for at US immigration. All as expected apart from they didn’t even ask for the customs declaration at any point. The immigration officer just asked if I had any food or more than $10k on me and that was it. I’m a regular traveller to the US, and that was a (pleasant) first. |
