In my case, I'm inclined to think the snarky agent who audibly disapproved of my daughter's punk attire had something to do with her being SSSS'd a few years ago, but it was probably a coincidence. I've had SSSS for no discernible reason.
Prior to the stop, search and questions by CBP agent at the outbound flight during boarding, I never had any SSSS. She wrote down, copied some info from my passport during that incident. I am sure she referred my name to TSA's SSSS list after that. I don't know why she would do this to me. I have no criminal record and I complied with her order for search and answers. Wasn't carrying more than $300 cash and the only carry ons were baby foods, drinks clothes and our shirts. We even complied with her order to write down the $300 cash we were carrying and our signatures while holding our baby. We answered all the questions about what we do,where we are going why, how and etc. Don't know why she felt the need to be so mad at us or me that after searching everything while all others were boarding, she found nothing she was looking for & further more she had to copy my name and passport info on a piece of paper?
