Years ago me and my then american husband lived in Sweden.

We flew to USA to visit his family and friends. He went through as an american. And I had to go through immigration as a visitor.

I was aksed why I came to USA. Answered I came with my american husband for a visit.

Immigration looked very confused and didnt really know what to do.
Like we would be first american/foreigner married couple not living here , only visitning.

I did get through after a few minutes of silence.He never asked me if I planned to stay since I/we lived abroad.
