Most international flights require 1 hr between connections. Can you make it? Depends on baggage handling, Iines at both immegrations and customs, and if they decide to search your bags. Also distance to your connecting flight. Good Luck!

Depends upon where your entering and how many other flights are being processed through Immigration and Customs at the same time. From my personal experience, there's little chance of making that connection at any of the major ports of entry.
I travel internationally very frequently. Most times it takes about 90 minutes at least to clear Customs & Immigration and get to the next flight. That's at Chicago O'Hare, Atlanta Hartsfield & Houston Bush airports. On the very rare occasion I've made it through in just under an hour.
The fastest I ever cleared was 38 minutes. That was at O-Hare but our flight had been delayed for several hours coming back from Europe and we were the only flight being handled. Of course we were extremely late as it was and I had to wait until the next day for my connection.
I've had 60 minute connections and missed them every time so I usually insist on at least a 2 hour connection though 3 is best.
