Hi,
I'm now in the USA on a tourist visa,
when I entered the officer in the airport told me that it is necessary that I report departure when I leave the US.

My flight is from New York, but there's a connection in Detroit, then from Detroit to outside the USA.
It's written in the paper he gave me that I should report my exit at the FINAL port of departure, so that is Detroit...
however the time between my two flights is almost 1 hour, (and I have to be on-board the plane 20 min. in advance)

Is 45 minutes enough for arriving in Detroit, going through security (again?), go to CBP report my departure, then run to the gate to my flight?
If I'm late to my flight Because of delays in reporting my departure, will the airline understand this and offer me to be on the next flight (the next day) for free?

Booking another flight at this time will cost me a fortune,
your advice is appreciated.

Thanks

Under some circumstances, foreign travelers are subject to special entry/exit registrations, if that applied to you on entry and CBP told you, you need to register your departure, make sure that you do. If you don't, you'll find it difficult to re-enter and if you have a multiple entry visa, failure to register might result being denied entry and having your visa cancelled . I'd contact the airlines and ask about whether you have sufficient time for this or not. 45 minutes sounds very tight to me.

If you were told that you need to report your departure, then I presume you are subject to the National Security Entry/Exit Registration (NSEERS) requirements - you would have been given complete information by the CBP officer upon initial registration. If so, you should plan your departure around the process, which can take anywhere from a few minutes to well over an hour, depending on your circumstances and the waiting time. Failure to register your exit will automatically create a computer generated alert on you in the system. You may be denied future entry into the US on your existing visa, and you run the risk of being denied a future visa to the US.

since you were told to report, you must do so,do not omit to do this, it will cause problems in the future .
while in Detroit, go to information booth between Gate A-38 and A-40 , use the INS telephone located on the left rear the booth,to contact INS ,if you cannot locate it ? ask an Airline assisstant to call (734) 247-4901they will glady do this for you . (get her name just in case )

There is no need to clear with Immigration when you depart from USA. Just check-in at the counter of your flight and the form that you filled up when you entered the US will be taken by the airline staff and this constitute as reporting your departure.

i don't think you really need to report your depature.. just like leaving any other country..


but if you were to report ,
45 minuets should be enough..
i don't think it would take that long.. they'll probably check your visa, ask you questions, and let you go..

like if there's 20 minuets left you should let them know..
