to a CBP officer your travel intent,

00:00:58.258 --> 00:01:00.460
whether essential
or non-essential,

00:01:00.460 --> 00:01:03.797
and attest to your vaccination
status if non-essential.

00:01:04.197 --> 00:01:06.800

give yourself extra time

00:01:14.274 --> 00:01:15.942
and expect wait times
at our crossings

00:01:15.942 --> 00:01:18.044
as we fulfill our
border security mission

00:01:18.044 --> 00:01:20.213
